Don't Go Back There | Dr. Tom Pace Preaching | 8.2.26

Aug 2, 2026    Dr. Tom Pace

Dr. Tom Pace opens a two-part series on building rhythms of pause into daily life as a spiritual discipline. Drawing from the fourth commandment as recorded in both Exodus and Deuteronomy, he explores how God designed a rhythm of work and rest into creation and into human life. The sermon uses the concept of slavery, handled carefully and metaphorically, to examine how modern people become captive to work demands and overfilled schedules. He argues that Sabbath rest is not a burden but a liberation, demonstrating both our freedom to choose how we live and our freedom to trust God with what we cannot control. Practical suggestions are offered for building small moments of intentional stopping into everyday life.
