Modern, Western life seems to be geared towards speed and efficiency.
Many of us are working longer hours and taking less time off. Shops are open for longer and everything is available at a simple click of a button, delivered the very next day. Everything is as convenient and fast as possible.
At the same time, burnout and mental health problems are becoming more and more common.
Does this frenetic pace of modern life work with how we are created to be or are we pushing ourselves beyond what our bodies, minds and souls are created for?
About this series

About this talk
This is the second talk in our Slow Down series. With many shops and services being available 24/7 and there being so much you do in life, why should we observe Sabbath? How can we put it into practise?
The Bible reference for this talk is Exodus 20:8-11.
