How to Take a Sabbath When You Work on Sundays with Daniel Stevanus

Show Notes

Show Notes:

Family Episode this week as we welcome our friend Daniel Stevanus, Stal as we call him. Stal handles all of 12:30’s blogs, podcast and social media here at our ministry. He also serves as a Student Pastor at a large methodist church in our community.

We’ll be talking with Stal about how to Take a Sabbath when you work on Sundays. If we burn out, there is no way we can minister to those in our care – we’ve done a few episodes on Soul Care and this week we’ll focus on how to take time off so you can make Sunday happen. Sounds contradictory? We don’t think so.

We’ll talk about that today.
