Billy Sticker shares a pastor's challenge to Christian entrepreneurs: if you trust God with your money through tithing, why not trust him with your time by keeping the Sabbath? Many dismiss rest as irrelevant to modern hustle culture, but Sticker learned that true Sabbath means deliberately unplugging from work to be fully present.
I also do some business coaching, and I had a pastor come and speak to our group. He speaks to a lot of entrepreneurs, and he said, as Christian business owners, a lot of us have learned to trust God with our tithe, but we haven't learned to trust God with our Sabbath. And that planted, and I was like, how good is that? And sometimes we have this mentality that, you know, Well, yeah, God took a whole day off, but He doesn't live in America. You know, He doesn't, He doesn't have to grind like we do. And so that's been something I've really been working on. And whenever we go out of town and take trips, you know, I do take those days. But really just being able to unplug, decompress, be present, and just enjoy.
