Why Christians Need Sabbath in an Exhausted Culture

Nearly three in four American adults report feeling very tired or exhausted at least some days, according to new CDC data. In a culture that celebrates productivity and treats rest as something we have to earn, Scripture offers another rhythm. Sabbath reminds Christians that we have limits—and that stopping can become an act of trust in the God who does not.

When Christian Teens Feel Torn Between Faith and Culture

Christian teenagers who are most actively living out their faith are also among those most likely to feel tension between their beliefs and cultural expectations. New Barna research reveals just how difficult it can be for teens to connect faith with everyday life.

And is changing the name enough—or does faithful Christian witness ultimately matter more?
