The pervasive exhaustion that permeates our global community stems from our collective failure to embrace God's rest. This groundbreaking book pioneers a transformative path toward an alternative way of existence. By seamlessly blending creative storytelling, pastoral sensitivity, practical insights, and relevant academic research, Subversive Sabbath presents a singular invitation to personal Sabbath-keeping, leading to lives that are more fulfilling and joyous. Author A.J. Swoboda adeptly demonstrates that Sabbath is not merely a spiritual discipline but also a form of social justice, establishing a profound connection between Sabbath-keeping and local communities. He unveils how God can accomplish more through our intentional rest, highlighting the biblical practice of Sabbath-keeping as God's plan for the restoration and healing of all creation. This captivating book also features a foreword by renowned author Matthew Sleeth, adding an additional layer of insight and inspiration to its pages.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 356g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 228 x 151 x 19 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781587434051                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"A.
