      Introduction

      Pity the person who doesn’t have a day that is worth remembering. Even under the harshest living conditions most people have a moment, an event, or period that can always bring a smile to their face or feeling of contentment and happiness inside. To live without such a memory is depressing. To live with one or more of them is to have hope for the future.

      Here are two simple, personal examples of memorable days that may trigger a few memories of your own. With the college football season complete, my freshman football coach had asked me if I wanted to continue in the program. Like others of my day, playing football was a boyhood dream but I told him I didn’t have the desire to do the intensive work necessary to continue at the university level.  He agreed it was a wise choice. I stepped outside the university sports center toward a brilliant setting sun with a feeling of contentment. It felt remarkably good, as though I had done something difficult but knew it was the right thing to do.

      My wedding day, on the other hand, was a full day of activity on an emotional high. The church was full of excitement, smiles, and affection as my bride and I were the center of attention. It was the starting point of our life together and having that moment to say I do was the greatest blessing.

      Perhaps you had a moment in your life that you still look back on with pride or happiness. Perhaps something you wish you could experience again. Did you know that we all have a day to remember? Everyone that has ever lived has been granted the opportunity to think and ponder on one special day. You’re right, we didn’t all experience the same actual 24 hours. But it was such a majestic day, with an impact that stretches to forever, that even though we didn’t experience it personally we can still embrace it as ours because it has been given to all. 

      It’s my contention that the original Sabbath Day was established to help humanity stay connected and close to God. Just as we celebrate Christmas and Easter, even though we weren’t in Bethlehem at Christ’s birth or Jerusalem to peer into the empty tomb, we can live life based on the original Sabbath Day. In this book we’ll look at the significance of the day, how God addressed it at various points in the Bible’s history and the implications for our lives in the 21st century.

      A Day to Remember at the Dawn of Time

      As the sun met the western horizon on the sixth day of the universe we might imagine the newest creatures on earth were finally taking time to settle and rest. Adam and Eve, and any other creatures that could remember the last few hours, would look back with amazement on all that had happened. They had not experienced the first cosmic changes when God spoke and made what was visible out of the invisible ¹. They had not seen him shape the earths elements or create the stellar bodies ² that would provide heat and light in unimaginable power. But they had been given life this day witnessing the beauty of their environment, experiencing the thrill of being alive and feeling the deep intimacy of mutual love.

      Jewish tradition holds that a day officially starts at sundown rather than midnight. If we use that as our starting point, we can briefly imagine the busy sixth day of the first week of time. After five full days, the sun was setting when God began creating animals ³ of all kinds. Perhaps it was the approach of sunrise when he changed the creative process, which to this point was the power of his spoken word. ⁴ Now he took the dirt and red clay of the world that had been the focus of the past 5 days and used it to shape a new being. Once the physical tissue was ready, nerves, blood cells, flesh and bones, he breathed into the lifeless body a spirit that was like his own ⁵. Adam came to life and we presume he and God spent some time talking
