Church Time Out

Rest for church ministry, just like everybody else, requires that you remove yourself from your work for a time. Whether a day, a week, or a longer sabbatical, you need to physically separate yourself from the job and enjoy some time on your own or with your family. Consider Christ’s example, in that “…He Himself would often slip away to the wilderness and pray.” (Luke 5:16) Furthermore, He encouraged His disciples to do the same, saying, “Come away by yourselves to a lonely place and rest a while.”
