The Sabbath Made Simple

"Rest is a commandment, not a suggestion." The Sabbath Made Simple is a Bible-first guide to holy rest: God rested at creation (Genesis 2:2-3), commanded it at Sinai (Exodus 20:8-11), and Jesus Christ — Lord of the Sabbath, Son of God and Son of Man — kept it and defended it as a gift made for man (Mark 2:27-28). Across twelve Scripture-led chapters, Kimani Upshur, M.Ed. walks through God's own example of rest, the fourth commandment, Christ's Sabbath healings and teachings, the three movements of the Sabbath (cease, rest, worship), Sabbath in the home, the deeper rest of Hebrews 4, and a practical plan for beginning this week. Includes a conclusion and a closing prayer. Prayer is Trinitarian throughout: to the Father, through Jesus Christ, by the Holy Spirit. No pop psychology — Scripture leads, and the Holy Spirit does the work.
