In this episode of the Enter the Bible podcast, hosts Katie Langston and Kathryn Schifferdecker welcome retired Charles T. Haley Professor of Old Testament Theology and Chair of the Biblical Studies Department at Princeton Theological Seminary, Dennis T. Olson to explore the significance of the Sabbath commandment for Christian believers.
In our season seven finale, we explore the rich meaning of Sabbath rest—its roots, its connection to Jesus’ life, and its relevance today. From the shift to Sunday worship to the challenges of finding rest in a fast-paced world, we discuss how the Sabbath is both a gift for flourishing and a practice of trust. Drawing on biblical stories like the manna in the wilderness, we reflect on how embracing the Sabbath can bring joy, community, and deeper reliance on God’s provision.
