Resistance to Anxiety

In Sabbath as Resistance: Saying No to the Culture of Now, Walter Brueggemann presents a thought-provoking exploration of the Sabbath as a profound act of defiance against the anxiety-driven demands of contemporary culture.

Drawing on the Exodus and the Ten Commandments, Brueggemann argues that observing the Sabbath offers a countercultural stance against the relentless pressures of consumerism, productivity, and ceaseless striving.  He invites readers to embrace Sabbath as a spiritual and practical discipline that fosters rest, renewal, and trust in God’s provision.  By resisting the idolization of work and the anxiety of scarcity, the Sabbath becomes a revolutionary practice of freedom, abundance, and liberation. Come and join us. Rev. Mary Elyn Bahlert is preaching.

Sunday worship begins at 10:15AM.
