Taylor Seminary invites people to a lecture from Dr. Norman Wirzba who will explore the wisdom and value in the practice of Sabbath rest. There is a renewal that comes from rest that seems to come no other way; it can be argued that this rhythm has been woven deep into the design of creation, and underlies the model for healthy ministry.

Every man wants to know his life counts for something. He wants to know that there is a greater purpose and plan than the everyday routines and trials he experiences. The world teaches that a greater life is experienced through what you own, achieve, and experience. God teaches that greatness begins and ends with Him, and that by His grace, He invites and empowers us to a “Greater” life. Promise Keepers Conferences are large gatherings for men to be encouraged, equipped, and challenged in their walk with God. To register, click here.
