37. Honoring the Sabbath and Keeping Sundays Holy

January 25, 2026 • Whitney Gardner • Episode 37

In this episode of Step Into Bold Faith, Whitney shares about honoring the Sabbath and why Sundays were never meant to feel rushed, chaotic, or filled with pressure to “get things done.”

Whitney opens up about her own realization that although she believed in rest, she wasn’t truly practicing it. Through Scripture, prayer, and intentional change, she began to see the Sabbath not as another rule, but as a gift from God.

This episode is an invitation to slow down, unplug, and rediscover Sundays as a holy day, a time for worship, rest, connection, and spiritual renewal.

If you’ve been asking questions like:

Why do I still feel tired even when I have a “day off”?
How do I slow down without feeling guilty?
What does God actually want Sundays to look like?
Why does rest feel so hard in this season of life?
How can honoring the Sabbath bring more peace into my week?

Then this episode is for you!
