The Gift of The Christian Sabbath

In this episode with Pastor Chris Gordon and guest, Rev. Dr. Dan Borvan, the topic is the sanctity and importance of the Sabbath. They look at how many have a misconception of what the Sabbath is, and discuss the clear obstacles in our culture that keep us from honoring this time of worship. They frame the day of rest as it should be, a privilege and a gift from God, designed to help bring us closer to Him and his Word. Pastor Gordon encourages anyone who is disconnected to come to church and experience this great blessing that is waiting for them every Lord’s Day.
