More About This Title Sunday, Sabbath, and the Weekend

  • English

English

Fourteen contributors come together here to examine how Christians and their churches can or should find meaning in the concepts of Sunday and Sabbath in relation to the pressures of contemporary global culture. The editors weave together personal experience, suggested practices, and historical and ethical material to form a unique volume for today’s church.

“This book is much needed in a culture that emphasizes productivity and work as the source of identity. Sunday, Sabbath, and the Weekend points powerfully to an ancient yet contemporary countercultural spiritual practice — Sabbath keeping. The book weaves together essays by scholars, pastors, and laity to tease out the meaning of Sabbath practices and Sunday for people today. It opens up important theological dialogue across traditions, with attention to context and ordinary daily living. An excellent resource!”
