How Sabbath Gets Sabotaged

Ready to rescue your personal sabbath from the crush of ministry demands and duties? Veteran pastor Jim Anderson can help. Anderson, who serves the Evangelical Free denomination in pastoral care, fully understands the challenges faced by busy, overcommitted pastors. He also understands the toll that ministry can take on a marriage or a family. Writing with a rich background of experience and expertise, Anderson explains God's "sabbath concept" in practical, theological, and always helpful terms. The book gets beyond "ought to" and shows you "how to" and "why to" and "what happens when..." Written with great grace and a scholar's appreciation for Scripture, the book's aim is to help busy ministers (or anyone who's busy) find their way to God's provision for sabbath --- not just a day of the week, but a way of doing life. Jim Anderson's book deserves a place on your bookshelf --- Start reading it today!
