Podcasts about sabbath sunday

We live in a world that is constantly competing for our attention. Without realizing it, what captures our attention begins to shape our hearts, our desires, and the way we live.Sabbath is God's invitation to step out of the noise and return to Him. It is more than a day off or a chance to catch up. It is an act of trust, a rhythm of reorientation, and an opportunity to remember that our lives are sustained not by our striving, but by God's faithful provision. As we slow down, we create space to notice what has been forming us, to surrender what has quietly claimed our hearts, and to allow God to reorder our lives according to His Kingdom.In this Sabbath Sunday teaching, we explore Isaiah 30:15 and discover how repentance, rest, quietness, and trust become the pathway to renewal. Together, we consider why Sabbath feels so countercultural, how distraction subtly shapes us, and why intentionally slowing down is essential to becoming the people God has created us to be.As you watch, our prayer is that this would not simply be another teaching to consume, but an invitation to pause, be present with God, and experience the freedom that comes from trusting Him more deeply.If you'd like to continue this practice throughout the week, download the Sabbath Guide and resources at:https://portcity.church/thewayIf this teaching encouraged you, be sure to subscribe to stay connected with weekly messages, conversations, and resources from Port City Community Church!

Why is rest so difficult in a world that never slows down? In this episode of Side Notes, Adam and Pastor Josh discuss the gift of Sabbath, what it means to trust God through rest, and how Jesus showed us that Sabbath was made for us. They also look ahead to NINE, a new series exploring the fruit of the Spirit.

We weren't designed to run on empty. In this standalone message, Pastor Josh explores the gift of Sabbath as God's weekly rhythm of rest, relationships, and refreshment. As we reach the midpoint of the year, we're invited to pause and consider how we're doing and to rediscover Sabbath as a gift meant to restore and renew us. // Verses and message notes: www.theridge.church/notes // Join us online or in person Sundays at 9a + 11a: www.theridge.church/live

Sabbath Sunday 2026

What type of kingdom is God calling us to build? In this Sabbath Sunday Devotional, Justin Ruszkiewicz dives in to what it means when Jesus points to His heavenly kingdom. ________________________________Sabbath Sunday is an occasional day of rest that we build into our annual schedule as a church to remind all of us that resting in the presence of the Lord is beneficial to us as believers. On this day, we are reminded to to delight in the Lord and take a break from the regular stressors in life to find peace that Jesus brings.Find us on:YouTube: YouTube.com/TheHarborInstagram: Instagram.com/TheHarbor_lifeFacebook: Facebook.com/TheHarbordotlifeWebsite: https://www.TheHarbor.lifeWatch/listen on The Harbor AppNew episode every week!

This Sunday, we're doing something a little different for Sabbath Sunday. Since it's the day after the 4th of July, we're creating space for our church family, Dream Team, and staff to slow down, rest, and worship from home. Today's message from Pastor Sam was pre-recorded so we can still gather around God's Word together, even while taking a different rhythm.We pray this message encourages you, strengthens your faith, and helps you make room for the rest God invites us into.

This weekend, we celebrate 250 years of freedom as a nation. We honor those who stood their ground, stormed beaches, defended liberty, and gave everything so others could live free.But freedom always raises a bigger question: What are we free for?This Sunday, we'll discover how the early church used seasons of peace to grow stronger, why millions of Christians throughout history lived boldly without the freedoms we enjoy today, and how God may be inviting us to leverage our liberty to make disciples, serve our neighbors, strengthen families, plant churches, and bring hope to the world.Freedom isn't just something to celebrate. It's something to invest.

Through Scripture, communion, and quiet reflection, we'll remember that Jesus was born to die and rise again.As we proclaim His death and await His return, we're reminded that our hope is secure and our strength is renewed in Him. This is a moment to pause and rest in God's promises.

In this week's Sabbath Sunday message, we pause to reflect on God's faithfulness in 2025. Join Pastor DawnCheré Wilkerson and the VOUS Team as they walk through moments, miracles, and milestones from this year while reminding us that Sabbath realigns our hearts to God and legacy is built through everyday obedience.

As we stand at the threshold of a new year, we're presented with a unique opportunity—not merely to set resolutions that will fade by February, but to embark on a transformative journey that reshapes who we are becoming. This isn't about trying harder; it's about training consistently in the ways that lead to genuine spiritual formation.__________Get more out of today's teaching by visiting our Church Online page for things like our community guide, a weekly devotional, and the teaching slides.

In this devotional, our Kids Ministry Elementary Coordinator Ferrin Gillespie looks at the story found in Mark 5 to show the ways that Jesus' authority and character shape the way He heals us. Not just in the big and spectacular moments, but also (especially) in the small day-to-day tasks and circumstances. Through it all, we will close 2025 and look forward to 2026 remembering these two things: He can and He cares.Find us on:YouTube: YouTube.com/TheHarborInstagram: Instagram.com/TheHarbor_lifeFacebook: Facebook.com/TheHarbordotlifeWebsite: https://www.TheHarbor.lifeWatch/listen on The Harbor AppNew episode every week!

This documentary is a sacred reflection on ten years of God's faithfulness in and through A Seattle Church. What began in living rooms and moments of uncertainty became a deeply rooted community committed to loving Jesus, one another, and this city. Through seasons of healing, growth, loss, and renewal—including the challenges of pandemic and transition—we see a church choosing depth over speed and presence over performance. These stories remind us that ASC was never built by strategy alone, but by people who kept showing up, trusting God, and refusing to give up on Seattle. On this Sabbath Sunday, we pause not to strive or produce, but to remember—bearing witness to what God has done and resting in the truth that He is still at work among us.Help us reach our End-of-Year-Giving Goal!We are so thankful for all of our giving partners' generosity.

Our God is worthy of our pure and honest offerings. And it's easy to understand "offerings" in an Old Testament context, but in this day and age, what is an offering that is worthy of our God? In this devotional, Worship Leader Brady Diffee likens an offering to a recipe for coffee with a pleasing aroma, brought about by three important ingredients: costliness, remembrance, and thankfulness. Watch this devotional to see how these three elements produce a pleasing aroma to the Lord.Find us on:YouTube: YouTube.com/TheHarborInstagram: Instagram.com/TheHarbor_lifeFacebook: Facebook.com/TheHarbordotlifeWebsite: https://www.TheHarbor.lifeWatch/listen on The Harbor AppNew episode every week!

The Crown | Sabbath Sunday | Chad & Julia Veach by Chad Veach

December 29, 2024

In Part 2 of "Highly Unlikely Holidays," Pastors Josh and Jenaye encourage listeners to create meaningful family traditions that foster gratitude and generosity, rather than getting caught up in consumerism. They highlight how to get into the Christmas spirit specificially at Evangel with special events like "Christmas at the Movies" series and Christmas Eve services. In closing they touch on the importance of rest and intentionality, and why Evangel will have a Sabbath Sunday to end the year.
