Looking at Sunday as a day set aside for God, in history and today. The fast pace of modern life and a growing secularism seem to have made it impossible to accept God’s invitation to make every seventh day a day of rest and contemplation. Starting with the Sabbath in the Jewish tradition and exploring the Christian Sunday Sabbath on the day of Christ’s Resurrection, this booklet traces the importance of Sunday. It also shows how Christians can recover it as a means of rest and sanctification. A great mix of historical background and practical instructions. Gives an overview of how the importance of Sunday has been understood and developed across the centuries.
