While the church could learn a great deal from Crossfit, our Christian tradition has a unique take on rest days or Sabbath.  Dorothy Bass writes, “Sabbath keeping is not about taking a day off but about being recalled to our knowledge of and gratitude for God’s activity in creating the world, giving liberty to captives, and overcoming the powers of death.”

How will you receive this day?  How will you experience Sabbath?

Crossfit and Church.  10:30 am in the Sanctuary of Central UMC (5265 h street sacramento, ca 95819).
