When God Stops Working: A Biblical Reflection on Sabbath Rest

Christians today are desperate for biblical answers to the exhaustion that so many of us suffer from the pace and demands of modern life. Keith brings words of liberation and challenge to us all, articulating in this thoughtful exposition of scripture a higher demand than the clamor of culture. Savor in these pages the life-giving word of God's command that we find and make time for rest. Author and Pastor Dave Cheadle, Denver, Colorado Ruckhaus's study calls us back to the basics, and in so doing calls into question the very way we do our faith. The subject of God's Sabbath is therefore not just another doctrine or issue. How we grasp and understand this Day of days defines the kind of discipleship we are willing to profess and practice... This book will exact an effort on your part, which means it will demand your time. Alas, time you perhaps don't have. Ah, this could then be the first step toward keeping the Sabbath. You will have to lay aside something if you are to grasp the significance of Ruckhaus's insights. Don't just read this book; enter it. Let it affect you. For it demands a response. Take it up into your life and your lifestyle. Enter the rest God is giving. And don't forget to take others along. Charles E. Moore Plough Publishing Spring Valley Bruderhof, PA
