pastor's retreat network
awhile back pam, my wife, found the pastor's retreat network - an organization whose purpose is to provide sabbath times for pastors and their spouses. they believe in this so strongly that they provide the service for free.
even though the room and board is free for pastors i would still be willing to bet that they are very rarely "booked up." it seems to me that we pastors do not do a very good job of "sabbath-ing." we have so absorbed the culture of this world that we think that part of our gospel mandate is to be constantly busy. we have to spread the good news. we have to shepherd our people. there's so much for us to do. we are very busy people?
was JESUS busy? when we work so hard at "doing" things for the gospel do we convey JESUS very well.
