Why is it so hard to serve God these days? Church workers suffer from low morale, while Christians of all stripes struggle to find their way in a culture fixated on sexuality, violence, and wealth. In Keeping the Sabbath Wholly (1989) Marva Dawn introduced the vital Sabbath aspects of resting, ceasing, feasting, and embracing. Now, in The Sense of the Call, she expands these into a way of life for serving God and the Kingdom every single day of the week.A Sabbath way of life, Dawn asserts, consists of resting in the Kingdom's grace, ceasing by grace those attitudes and actions that hinder the Kingdom, feasting so as to radiate the grace-full splendor of the Kingdom, and embracing the Kingdom's gracious purposes. To this end Dawn teaches skills such as learning to rest in prayer, saying no to busyness, enjoying one's body as God's temple, and embracing the cost of living as a Christian disciple.Both frank and compassionate, The Sense of the Call will guide Christian servants into a more restful, joy-full life of trust in God.

The Sense of the Call: A Sabbath Way of Life for Those Who Serve God, the Church, and the World
I have a serious hate-love (in that order) relationship with this book. I nearly stopped reading at the end of the first chapter. My side note margins are not very kind. I'm glad I kept going. There is so much good in this if you weed out all the unnecessary rhetoric and (as a friend I turned to for understanding one section called it) attempts to wax poetic. Dawn has so much to teach and teaches so very much, but this is not, in my opinion, written for anyone but the well-trained seminarians. Had it been more straightforward, more universal in who would be able to read and therefore learn and gain from it, I might have given it a higher rating.
All that said, my prayer and hope is to employ what she has to teach in this book in my own life and in the lives of those I touch.
