We are bombarded 24 hours a day, 7 days a week with messages on the need to consume, possess, achieve, and perform. God, by establishing the Sabbath, allows us to break out of this maniacal routine, insists Walter Brueggemann. In this new edition of Sabbath as Resistance, world-weary believers learn to return to what's crucial: God, other people, and the simple virtues. This new edition also contains a study guide that can be used for personal reflection or group discussions.
