MISSION AND Long -Range Planning
"I have come to think that the recovery of the Sabbath is the most crucial and most demanding covenant command (spiritual discipline) now to be faced in the technological society. Our faith requires a deep and deliberate break from the demands and preoccupations of production that are evoked by consumerism. Having said that, the move from Sabbath as a 'good idea' to the practicalities of sabbatical is no simple or obvious one. Clergy Renewal, in clear, accessible, and quite practical ways, shows how the move may be made. As Bullock and Bruesehoff show, the move into a sabbatical is not a private, personal one but necessarily concerns the entire 'system' around one's call. Candidates for fatigue will find guidance here." Walter Brueggemann, Columbia Theological Seminary |
