Sabbath as Communal, Not Individual, Nathan Stucky – Video and Discussion Outline
Questions for Discussion:
- Perhaps rest is hard not because we’re doing something wrong, but because we’re doing something right. How might rest be seen as an act of resistance?
- “What are the assumptions that are provoking us to perceive rest as a luxury” and not a biological necessity, as Stucky posits?
- A third question from Dr. Stucky: “What do we want for our young people?”
- What does it mean that we all need to engage in the practice of rest together? What might that look like?
