With a woman to look at culture from a Christian worldview, I'm John Stone Street with a point.

Recently in the Atlantic, Jason Heller described how he and his wife took back their Sundays.

Quote, although Angie and I aren't religious, we really do think of our secular day of

rest as sacred.

That's why we take pains to protect it, even when it means turning down career opportunities

or the next week being a little more stressful.

When you take away all the tasks you might feel press to do on a Sunday, what you're left

with isn't an absence, it's an opening.

Well, that idea shouldn't be revolutionary, not that long ago, and most American communities,

most places were closed on Sundays.

These days, finding rest even one day a week can feel like an uphill battle.

Much like the French Revolution's infamous 10-day week, the frenzied pace of modernity

desacralizes the created order and everyday life.

But our best attempts only collide with reality as God designed it, got himself rested.

He told us to do likewise.

His rules aren't random.

They're actually baked into creation.

That includes Sabbath.

But the Colson Center, I'm John Stone Street.
