Yet these cultural visions of fulfillment often leave us more restless than before.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere is a more satisfying path. God invites us not simply to take a day off, but to be transformed to be like him through the joy, delight, and holiness of sabbath all seven days of the week.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eThe Sabbath We Need\u003c\/i\u003e, John and Jena Starke guide you away from the world's anxious systems and into participation with God in his rest. This is not another book about relaxation or self-care. The biblical emphasis on sabbath rest isn't necessarily about recovering from the week but to be set apart like the God who rested on the seventh day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBased on their own practices as a family of six living in Manhattan, the Starkes offer a path for detachment from the world for a deeper attachment to Christ, providing hope for a culture exhausted in its search for rest.
