Weekly Up date Pastor John

Dear Asbury Family,

It has been a fast start to the year, and February is already here. When life moves quickly, Sabbath becomes an intentional way of slowing down. Author Eugene Peterson once said, “You’ve got to quit, one day a week, and just watch what God is doing when you’re not doing anything.”

How often do you stop everything else and simply pay attention to what God is doing? My guess is not very often. Most of us move from task to task in an endless box-checking frenzy.

This week, as we continue our Awakened to Grace series, we will explore the practice of Sabbath, not just as a day of the week, but as intentional time set aside to become aware of God’s grace at work in and around us.

Come and join us for worship, and invite a friend.

Shalom,
Pastor John
