    Sabbath for Leaders: The Biblical Call to Rest

    Thursday, December 11, 2025 at 12:00 PM until 1:00 PMCentral Standard Time UTC -06:00

    via Zoom 
    This free webinar is hosted by the Gary Cook School of Leadership at Dallas Baptist University.
    In Genesis, we learn that on the seventh day, God rested, thus establishing a pattern of Sabbath rest to be followed by all of creation. Unfortunately in our present reality, few if any follow this pattern, and it is especially lacking among leaders.

    Join us for a candid conversation about the meaning of and the need for Sabbath rest, as well as the ways in which we can establish spiritual disciplines to incorporate healthy boundaries of rest in our lives without diminishing our call as leaders.
