Whenever I see my birthday twin and friend-going-back-to-before-I-had-faith friend Letitia Suk, I come away refreshed and challenged. When we had lunch in Chicago in late
October, we got into a discussion of keeping the Sabbath, something I am woefully bad at, using the dodge that generally, I’m writing for God on that day so maybe it’s OK.
Tish gently told me about her own longtime Sabbath practices, which include relaxing and making a big pot of soup. A few weeks later, she sent me this book, Sabbath: Finding Rest, Renewal, and Delight in Our Busy Lives by Wayne Muller. It’ll be my December reading as I attempt to tarry a while with the Lord. I can’t promise to make soup every Sunday night, though!
What’s on your nightstand?
So eager to have the Sabbath conversation after you read the book to see what stirred for you. No soup from May-September, sausages and salad instead 🙂
