Book Review: Sabbath: Restoring The Sacred Rhythm Of Rest
Sabbath: Restoring The Sacred Rhythm Of Rest, by Wayne Muller This book was disappointing. On the positive side, it is to the author’s credit that he views the Sabbath as a liberating practice rather than something that impoverishes and diminishes … Continue reading
Book Review: Sabbath Day Of Eternity
Sabbath Day Of Eternity, by Aryeh Kaplan There is a fundamental flaw of logic at the heart of this book. The author writes about the Sabbath from a Jewish perspective, specifically from the erroneous premise that the Talmud springs from … Continue reading
Book Review: The Sabbath Question Illustrated

Book Review: Subversive Sabbath
Subversive Sabbath: The Surprising Power Of Rest In A Nonstop World, by A.J. Swoboda There are at least two sorts of approaches one can take to a book like this. On the one hand, one can point out its clear … Continue reading

If You Know You Know
It is often thought by those who are not in the know that there is no purpose in tautology. The statement that adorns this particular personal essay is an example of a tautology. If you know, you know. In mathematical … Continue reading
Book Review: Crazy Busy
Crazy Busy: A (Mercifully) Short Book About A (Really) Big Problem by Kevin DeYoung This book is probably as sympathetic as the author is going to ever be in my own eyes. To be sure, going into reading this book … Continue reading
