For generations, "Sabbath" meant Sunday or Saturday to most people -- a day when stores closed, churches opened, and families came together to renew their relationship with God. The reality of Sabbath as a day of rest has been lost in our busy society, but the sense of Sabbath, as spiritual leisure, is very much needed in our time-starved world.
Schaper presents the concept that Sabbath moments are neither rest nor labor but the pauses between them. They are any moments that actively include the presence of God. Such moments can include walking, gardening, homemaking, or writing -- any activity that steals time back from the chaos of a hectic world. Through "ritualizing the chaos of modern life", Schaper teaches the refocusing of time, clutter free living, and even keeping house as a spiritual practice.
By presenting solutions to overwork, Sabbath Sense is the perfect antidote to the anxieties felt in two career families -- especially those on the edge of formal religious observance. "By observing inner Sabbath", observes Schaper, "we become persons who work and rest and know how to balance both". Ultimately, Sabbath Sense shows readers how to take back their time and take care of their souls -- one moment at a time.
