Continuing the Conversation

1. Jesus chose rest ahead of time, not only when feeling dead tired.

Question: Looking at a normal week, what usually determines when you rest—exhaustion, convenience, or intention—and what would need to change for rest to become a protected rhythm rather than a last resort?

2. Jesus used Sabbath to engage God, not avoid life.

Question: When you finally slow down, where do you naturally turn for relief or enjoyment, and how do those habits either draw you closer to God or quietly replace Him?

3. Sabbath helped Jesus rehearse who He was before what He would do.

Question: During busy seasons, how does your sense of worth tend to drift—toward productivity, usefulness, or approval—and how might Sabbath help re-center your identity as a son or daughter rather than a performer?

4. Jesus’ joy flowed from trust in the Father, not ideal circumstances.

Question: What brings you the deepest sense of delight when you rest, and what might that reveal about what you’re trusting to satisfy your heart?
