Popis:	Clergy stress and burnout are concerns across denominational lines. But one response—encouraging Sabbath keeping among clergy—raises multiple issues for Seventh-day Adventist (SDA) pastors. This study examines the question: How do SDA pastors practice and experience the Sabbath? Using a phenomenological approach, the study sought a thick, in-depth description of Sabbath keeping. For the SDA pastors interviewed, the Sabbath was paradoxical, and contextual clues emerged as key factors in establishing boundaries between work and rest.
