What did Jesus mean when he said that he came so that we might have life and life to the fullest? In our Thrive series we are going to look at a number of spiritual habits that can help us to grow our relationship with God. What about the idea of sabbath? What exactly is included (or not included) in this biblical practice of sabbath keeping?
Scripture starts by setting the tone about God, this world, and us. Foundationally we start with the idea that God made humanity in his image. As we struggle with tough conversations in a polarized world, how could it change our conversations if we keep it front of mind that each person you meet is made in God’s image?

Phrases like when rubber meets the road, the moment of truth, name the moment where our ideas, beliefs, and theories have to be tested, or put into practice. In Genesis 22 Abraham steps into one of those moments. Where the same God he left his home for, who rescued his nephew, who he trusted with his family, is now asking Abraham do you really trust me? When I talk to people it is often in these challenging moments that people experience their greatest growth. They are also moments that few of us look forward to.
