Description
Today I talked with Senator Joe Lieberman—who ran for Vice President in 2000 with Al Gore, and for President in 2004 in the Democratic primary—about his book, The Gift of Rest: Rediscovering the Beauty of the Sabbath (2011).

It is the shared practice of all Abrahamic monotheists: Jews, Christians, and Muslims alike.
