Sabbath (2) Discussion Questions: 5-24-2020

We hope that our church body will continue in breakout style discussion over the phone and in other creative ways as well.  Eldon has provided small group questions to facilitate the post sermon discussions. Even though we have to keep our social distance, we sincerely hope that we can be spiritually near to one another.

  1. In what ways do you most see the Sabbath fulfilled in the life of Christ?  How did He begin to model a new paradigm of Sabbath-keeping even during his ministry?
  2. Do you think it is important for Christians to have a form of Sabbath in their lives?  Why or why not?  What does it look like?
  3. What does it mean to take on the yoke of Christ?  In what ways is it “light” and “easy”?

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. Matthew 11:28-29
