“The Sabbath was made to serve us; we weren’t made to serve the Sabbath.” (Mark 2:23-27, MSG)”

“People are illogical, unreasonable, and self- centered. Love them anyway. As Jesus was being crucified, he said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing” (Luke 23:34). If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives. Do good anyway. After Jesus performed miracles of healing, his critics said, “He is possessed by Beelzebul! By the prince of demons he is driving out demons” (Mark 3:22), but Jesus continued to heal the sick and drive out demons.”

“Delight doesn’t require a journey thousands of miles away to taste the presence of God, but it does require a separation from the mundane, an intentional choice to enter joy and follow God as he celebrates the glory of his creation and his faithfulness to keep his covenant to redeem the captives.”
― Dan B. Allender, Sabbath: The Ancient Practices

“JESUS ALWAYS VALUED RELATIONSHIPS OVER RULES, TRUTH OVER LAW, AND SERVANTHOOD OVER RELIGION. HE NEVER ALLOWED LEGALISM TO DISPLACE LOVE.”
