Resting in God's Name: The Sabbath from Creation to Christ-and Why It Still Matters Today


Overview

What if the exhaustion you feel is not a personal failure-but a spiritual warning? What if God already gave His people a remedy for burnout, anxiety, fractured families, and restless souls? And what if that ancient gift has been hiding in plain sight since the beginning of Scripture? This book dares to say: it has. A Restless World. A Weary Church. A Forgotten Gift.We are more connected than ever-yet more tired than any generation before us. Christians are busy serving God, working hard, and trying to do the right things-yet many feel spiritually dry, emotionally strained, and perpetually rushed. We ask questions we were never meant to live with: Why am I always exhausted? Why does my faith feel hurried instead of peaceful? Why do my family, marriage, and inner life feel so strained? Is this really the abundant life Jesus promised? Scripture has an answer. And it begins with Sabbath. Before Law. Before Sin. Before Striving-There Was Rest.From the opening pages of Genesis, God established a rhythm of life centered on rest, trust, and communion with Him. The Sabbath was not created to burden humanity-but to bless it. Yet somewhere along the way, the Sabbath became misunderstood, neglected, or reduced to rules and debates-while the people of God quietly grew weary. In Resting in God's Name, pastor and Bible teacher Dan C. Rowen calls believers back to the heart of God's design, tracing the story of the Sabbath from Creation, through Israel, to its fulfillment in Jesus Christ, and into the urgent realities of modern life. This is not nostalgia. It is restoration. A Biblically Grounded Call to Rest in a Relentless AgeThis book does not argue for legalism. It does not impose rules. And it does not romanticize the past. Instead, it opens Scripture carefully, reverently, and clearly-revealing how God's rhythm of rest has always been about freedom, faith, and renewal. You will discover: Why God rested-and why it matters for your life today How Israel understood the Sabbath as identity, trust, and covenant How Christ Himself becomes our deepest rest Why the early church wrestled deeply with rest, freedom, and worship How neglecting rest quietly reshapes faith, families, and health What Sabbath can look like in modern life-without guilt or rigidity This book speaks to the overworked, the overstimulated, the overextended, and the spiritually sincere who long for a quieter, deeper walk with God. This Book Does Not Merely Teach About Rest-It Invites You Into ItYou won't finish this book feeling condemned. You will finish it feeling called home. Called back to: A faith that breathes A family life that slows down A church life marked by joy, not exhaustion A God who still says, ""Come to Me, and I will give you rest."" For Every Believer Who Feels Worn but Still Hungry for GodIf you love Scripture but feel tired... If you believe in grace but live rushed... If you sense God calling you to slow down but don't know how... This book is for you.
