Do You Need a Vacation From Your Vacation?
Posted by: Susan Gaddis on August 4, 2010
We’ve Moved!
Occasionally we'll add a new post here, but Susan posts twice a week on her blog, Holy in the Daily, at her Building a Spiritual Legacy website:
www.susangaddis.net
Welcome
This blog is a record of our journey into rest through the practice of Sabbath and taking a Sabbatical. We usually post once a month. You can expect articles, musings, sermon notes, reviews of coffee shops, get-away locations, and quotes. Intertwined you'll find Tom's humor, Susan's practical mind, and God's inspiration. Please add your wisdom in the comments of any post that you connect with.
The blog starts out with a Sabbatical letter from our church eldership and Tom's Sabbatical letter as one of the pastors at Father's House, a Foursquare church on the central coast of California.
Hope you enjoy it, Tom and Susan Gaddis
