Is a Sabbath Day Worth The Trouble? | Episode 006

  • Summary

  • What happens when you try to unplug in today's fast-paced world? Vernon shares his hilarious struggle to truly relax, while Deseret opens up about her Sabbath starting in the wee hours of the morning. These personal stories set the stage for a deeper conversation about the concept of Sabbath and its vital importance as a day dedicated to rest, spiritual connection, and family bonding. Despite the hurdles, we explore how dedicating a day to disconnect from the hustle brought us closer together and closer to our faith.

    Our family took intentional steps to ensure a meaningful Sabbath, starting with preparations on Friday evening. The effort paid off as we enjoyed quality time together filled with games, outdoor adventures, and moments of prayer and gratitude. We questioned if all the preparation was worth it and found a resounding yes in the joy and connection we experienced. The benefits were clear—sleeping in, playing with the kids, and simply being present added immense value to our lives.

    Finally, we reflect on how maintaining a Sabbath has long-term benefits that extend far beyond one day. From increased mental clarity and creativity to more productive weeks, the positive impact was undeniable. Spontaneous activities, like a visit to Shaggies on the Res or a game of Jenga in less-than-perfect weather, became cherished memories. We encourage you to consider incorporating a day of rest into your routine and to share your experiences with us.
