Ligonier Teaching Series - The Lord’s Day: Study Guide

Teaching Series Description:

For millennia, God’s people have set aside one day each week for rest and worship. It wasn’t too long ago that shops and restaurants closed on Sunday, recognizing that this day is unique. Times and attitudes have changed since then, both outside the church and within. But have they changed for the better? When few people see Sunday as sacred, it’s time to ask if we’ve lost something vital along the way. In this teaching series, Dr. W. Robert Godfrey surveys the Bible and church history to discover God’s purpose for the Lord’s Day. By exploring Scripture’s teaching and the practice of Christians who have come before us, we can better appreciate the refreshment and delight that God intends His day to bring.
