To say that the world (and us in it) are busy isn’t news. For centuries, some religious communities have found solace in the instruction to rest in the midst of busyness. Filmmaker, Martin Doblmeier, has captured some of these traditions in his newest film by Journey Films, Sabbath. In this project, Jewish and Christian scholars and clergy expound on how the Sabbath has shaped their lives and faith. We also see churches, synagogues, families, and even a seminary and a summer camp embrace the Sabbath, and its many aspects, in ways unique to their contexts and settings. Listen to more about the documentary in this conversation with Martin and then watch the film for free with the link below!
