Karen and David Mains from the Chapel of the Air radiobroadcast have been a creative force in church and family ministry for almost three decades. This book is another example of Christian leaders attempting to bring fresh thinking and practical ideas to the opportunity of keeping a sabbath. The authors rework the ancient Jewish tradition of the evening meals at the gates of Sabbath time. I have used their material with happy effect in my own family's Sabbath keeping.
