AB This article argues that a theology of rest is an essential component in the training of ministry professionals. The practice of Sabbath rest is a balm for the contemporary issues of emotional exhaustion, prolonged stress, and burnout that many full-time and lay ministers experience during their ministry career. Developing a robust theology of rest and Sabbath rhythm will equip ministry professionals to create sacred space for God, contributing to longevity of ministry and holistic rest.
