We have a special guest joining us, Dr. Mitch, who offers a fascinating perspective on the role of rest in our lives, both from a spiritual and physical health viewpoint. Tune in as he clarifies the concept of Sabbath and why God, although not needing rest Himself, emphasized the importance of rest for us. We explore the concept of Sabbath being a 'stopping day', and even look into Genesis to examine where this idea originated.
