Book Description
There can be no doubt that a seismic shift has taken place within the English-speaking world over the last sixty years regarding what used to be referred to as ‘the Christian Sabbath.’ What was considered to be a day of rest, worship and holy activity is now just like any other day of the week — one for the shopping mall, the sports stadium, or for some selfindulgent ‘me-time.’
What has led to this transformation? Or, more importantly, how ought we to think of the first day of the week? Were our forefathers correct in their understanding of ‘the Lord’s Day’ or ‘the Christian Sabbath’? And what did the Lord Jesus Christ mean when he said that ‘the Sabbath was made for man’ and that he was ‘Lord of the Sabbath’?
Terry Johnson investigates these questions and the issues raised by them. He draws out the teaching of Scripture and illustrates it from the writings of many of the great teachers of the Christian church. He then sets out practical recommendations to help today’s Christians experience the benefits and blessings of the special day God has given us.

A short read, but an excellent read! This little book is packed with solid reasoning, persuasive arguments and biblical backing that demonstrates the priority and significance of setting one day aside as holy unto the Lord. The Christian Sabbath is a much needed reality in the life of every true follower of Jesus Christ! Every Christian pastor should take up and read this convincing and convicting book. And then that same pastor should have his congregation read it as well.
