Sabbath: Learning to Stop and Trust God | Don’t Skip the Big Rocks 05

Author: Grace Church September 14, 2026 Duration: 38:45

We live in a world that constantly tells us to do more, achieve more, and keep going. But God created us with a different rhythm: work and rest.

In Week 5 of Don’t Skip the Big Rocks, we look at what the Bible really teaches about Sabbath. Sabbath is more than a rule or a day on the calendar—it is a gift that reminds us that God is in control, our value is not found in our productivity, and the work of Jesus is already finished.

Scriptures: Genesis 2:1–3, Deuteronomy 5:12–15, Colossians 2:16–17, Hebrews 4:9–11, Mark 2:27, Matthew 11:28–30
