When was the last time you heard a sermon on the theological importance of play? What do rest, eating, studying -- and sex -- have to do with the Kingdom of God? Strangely, although these activities together take up much of our time, they seldom receive much discussion from a biblical point of view. In The Rest of Life Ben Witherington explores these subjects in the light of biblical teaching about the Kingdom of God and the Christian hope for the future. He shows why and how all the normal activities of life should be done to the glory of God and for the edification of others. Focusing as it does on practical, everyday matters in an accessible style, this topical study is ideal for both individual reading and small-group discussion. Kirjastojen kuvailuja ei löytynyt. |

These topics include things such as allowing yourself to “play” through a hobby you have (I’ve always struggled with guilt on that and his argument on the important of play majorly helped that!), or caring for your body through eating right, getting proper sleep, etc.
The book also mentions about how people would have learned God’s Word in the time of Jesus and the early church. That part was so helpful and made me think over my own appreciate to studying the Scriptures.
The book does pull from Rob Bell’s Sex God in the fifth chapter, but as far as I can tell, the notes and quotes from it are ones that are biblical and/or correction is brought to those that are not. So I would say, don’t let that turn you off reading this book because it’s not worth skipping it for that reason at all! I was surprised to glean so much from this chapter too despite this.
Overall, I would definitely recommend this book! ( )
