  a restful rest indeed
Review created: 09/27/08

Mark Buchanan has a way with words. He is both artsy and poetic, informed and revelatory. He has a great imagination and is easily readable. He is a masterful story-teller.

This book is not a historic treatise on the Sabbath. While respectful of tradition, it is thoroughly contemporary.

Buchanan's Sabbath is thorougly experiential. It is completely void of legalism, rightly warning against it.

While some might have desired more interaction with historical renditions of this topic, this is still a good read. I would have preferred some additional insights from both historic Christianity and Judaism though.

  The Rest of God

I was given a book like this by my friend and was so impressed with the content of the book that I decided to buy one for myself and I also bought three more as gifts. It is one of the best books I have read about how God wants us to rest on His Sabbath. This brings mental, physical, and spiritual healing and prepares us to face the next week refreshed. I highly recommend this book!!

It's a well-written book. Not too technical, but not to loose. It stays on topic pretty well, and ocasionally provides appropriate anecdotes. The really good thing is just the topic itself. No matter how it's presented, it's one that needs to be presented, and it's been helping me in my understanding of a need for a day/time of rest, God-ordained. Nontheless, it is presented very well and I'd recommend it to anyone frazzled by the work-week, at the end of their rope, but ready to seek God for the solution.
