Podcast with Michael Hirsch on Honoring the Sabbath
Topic: Honoring the Sabbath.
The Ten Commandments have been a key backbone for law in the Western tradition, including America, for centuries. President Harry Truman once said, “The fundamental basis of this nation’s laws was given to Moses on the Mount.” The 4th commandment deals with honoring the Sabbath. Jesus said that man was not made for the Sabbath, but the Sabbath was made for man. But what happens to us if we repeatedly neglect this gift from God? There’s a new book called “Pressing Pause: Finding Rest in a Restless World,” that shows us how liberating to us the command to honor the Sabbath can be. The authors are Michael and Selah Hirsch, founders of Start Sabbath. One reader said, “This book is a must do…nothing short of a lifeline.” In the very opening of the book, the authors have this dedication: “To all who find themselves craving peace in this chaotic world, Jesus invites you to pull up a seat at His table.” Michael Hirsch join Jerry Newcombe to discuss the Sabbath. www.startsabbath.com
