Thomas Merton, toward the end of his life, warned of a "pervasive form of contemporary violence" that is unique to our times: overwork and overactivity. In his work as a minister and caregiver, Wayne Muller observed the effects of this violence on our communities, our families, and our people. He responds to this escalating "war on our spirits" in this audio guide, and immerses listeners in the sacred tradition of the shabbat - the day of rest - a tradition that is all but forgotten in an age where consumption, speed, and productivity have become the most valued human commodities. He offers practices and exercises that reflect the sabbath as recognized in Christianity, Judaism, and Buddhism. Through his way of nourishment and repose, Muller teaches, we welcome insights and blessings and arise only with stillness and time.

In this new edition, popular author Walter Brueggemann writes that the Sabbath is not simply about keeping rules but rather about becoming a whole person and restoring a whole society. Brueggemann calls out our 24/7 society of consumption, a society in which we live to achieve, accomplish, perform, and possess. We want more, own more, use more, eat more, and drink more. Brueggemann tells listeners how keeping the Sabbath allows us to break this restless cycle and focus on what is truly important: God, other people, all life.

In the fast-paced, chaotic, overly scheduled cadence of our culture, it can be difficult to imagine how to squeeze the Sabbath into our already over-stuffed lives. What if Sabbath isn’t designed to “fit” into our lives, but rather to take over our lives―in the best way imaginable? Hebrew scholar and Old Testament professor Travis West takes listeners on a spiritual journey to discovering radical rest is more than a weekly practice of taking a day off―it’s also a posture, a way of living every day.

Stillness as a virtue is a foreign concept in our society, but there is wisdom in God's own rhythm of work and rest. Jesus practiced sabbath among those who had turned it into a dismal thing, a day for murmuring and finger-wagging, and he reminded them of the day's true purpose: liberation - to heal, to feed, to rescue, to celebrate, to lavish and relish life abundant. With this audiobook, Buchanan reminds us of this and gives practical advice for restoring the sabbath in our lives.

Un tempo burattinaio scandalosamente creativo, a sessantaquattro anni Mickey Sabbath conserva il suo sprezzante antagonismo e la sua sfrenata libidine. Ma dopo la morte della sua amante di vecchia data – uno spirito libero in fatto di erotismo, la cui audacia nell’adulterio supera perfino quella dello stesso Sabbath, s’imbarca in un viaggio turbolento nel proprio passato. Nudo e dolente, perseguitato dai fantasmi di coloro che piú l’hanno amato e odiato, ordirà una sequela di disastri farseschi che lo condurranno sull’orlo della follia e dell’estinzione.

The Sabbath in Puritan New England by Alice Morse Earle published by Charles Scribner’s Sons 1891.

We live in a 24/7 culture of endless productivity, workaholism, distraction, burnout, and anxiety-a way of life to which we've sadly grown accustomed. This tired system of "life" ultimately destroys our souls, our bodies, our relationships, our society, and the rest of God's creation. The whole world grows exhausted because humanity has forgotten to enter into God's rest. Combining creative storytelling, pastoral sensitivity, practical insight, and relevant academic research, Subversive Sabbath offers a unique invitation to personal Sabbath-keeping.

Many Americans balk at the idea of setting aside a whole day for worship, rest, and time with those who matter most to them. Yet we long for more time to spend on what matters most—unrushed time to rest, reconnect with friends and loved ones, and deepen our relationship with God. An ancient spiritual practice exists that can help restore balance to our lives: the practice of keeping sabbath. But how exactly do we manage to build time for sabbath into our busy lives? Dana Trent explores this question in For Sabbath's Sake.

De la primigenia escoria que brotara de la fragua del rock duro británico, surgiría en el oeste de la Inglaterra proletaria este entrañable y disparatado disturbio sonoro comandado por el guitarrista (aquí autobiografiado) que aunó a un díscolo hatajo de tunantes dispuestos a subvertir lo que la todopoderosa industria discográfica ordenaba y disponía. El sonido sin parangón de Iommi traía causa de una lesión que sufrió en los dedos de su diestra mientras trabajaba —ironías del destino— en una fábrica de chapa metálica.
