Worship Resources for Remote Sabbathkeepers

When I was growing up we spoke of those who lived far from their SDB Church and worshiped at home as "lone Sabbath keepers." They may have felt alone, or maybe were alone due to geographic location, but they were not alone before the throne of grace. They like all others who worship God on His Sabbath day were together in God's presence.

So, at the urging of Rob Appel we began using a different name. We now speak of "remote Sabbath keepers." This may speak of geographic distance but hopefully each is connected to a local church by friendship and maybe even covenant.

This being said, not having an SDB Church body close enough to be a part of physically each week is a challenge for many. So on the Conference website we have posted some resources that can help "remote Sabbath keepers" as they worship. By providing these we are in no way trying to discourage gathering together with other believers when at all possible.

If you are reading this at http://www.seventhdaybaptist.org/ go to the top of this page and click on the "community" button in the menu bar, and then click on "Worship Resources." Here you will find links to some SDB Churches which post their weekly sermon (a couple do the whole service) on a regular basis. Here you will find a couple links to help you find music to use as well as a link for the Sabbath School quarterly the Helping Hand in Bible Study. Yes currently there is a direct link on the front page, but when than goes away in 6-12 months, you need to know how to find this stuff anyway.

We do hope that these resources will be helpful for remote Sabbath keepers as well as others who can use some of these resources in their own personal devotional life.
