Against the Grain
70. The Radical Idea of Rest (with Andrew & Beth Sawyers)
In a culture that glorifies busyness, taking one intentional day of rest each week feels almost countercultural. We fill our "off days" with grocery runs, house chores, and errands, chasing productivity even when we're supposed to be resting. But what if we were never meant to live that way? In this episode, Eric, Andrew, and Beth unpack the importance and value of the Sabbath like why it matters, what it really means, and how to reclaim it in a world that never stops. They share practical ways to build intentional rest into your week and challenge you to rethink what a true day of rest can look like. Get ready to get serious about the Sabbath and start practicing it in your everyday life.
