Did you know that the Bible literally commands people to take a Shabbat or sabbatical from work? God took a Shabbat after spending six days creating the world and the same was ordained for ordinary people. In our present society, a sabbatical leave or simply "sabbatical," was originally granted to professors after six years of service to give them a chance to broaden their horizons beyond the classroom, get a much needed break, and prevent burn out. Eventually, corporate organizations and even some smaller companies soon followed suit too. Whether you're a teacher or a company executive, you're probably excited by the prospect of taking a sabbatical, and considering how long and how hard you've worked, you certainly deserve it! This book is a must-read guide, providing practical suggestions on how to make the most out of this special opportunity. And since a sabbatical is not only a time off from the routine, but also a move that carries potential risks which can impact your career, reputation, and income as well, I'll also explain how to best deal with these potential pitfalls so that you can fully enjoy your sabbatical without worry.

The Academic Sabbatical: A Voyage of Discovery is a collection of narratives that reveals how important sabbaticals are to faculty and, by extension, to higher education. This in-depth look at the diverse experiences and perspectives provides a wealth of evidence that sabbaticals are instrumental in increasing productivity in terms of research and knowledge dissemination. These periods of self-directed and focused work enable scholars to restore their academic energies, leading to enhanced engagement with their programs, graduate students, and intellectual exchange among peers. Although not without challenges and tensions, sabbaticals help academics build stronger and deeper connections. While this book stands alone in promoting the richness and potential of the sabbatical as a structural feature of the academy, it is a great follow-up to The Academic Gateway and Beyond the Academic Gateway, which respectively discuss the tenure-track and tenure experience. This book is the third in the Lives in the Canadian Academic Landscape triptych.

In the war for human capital, lawyer workplaces of all sizes from coast to coast find sabbaticals to be a workable, worthwhile tool in their attorney retention arsenal. This practical 140-page manual is authored by Lori Simon Gordon, a Northwestern J.D./M.B.A., who took a sabbatical from her partnership at Latham & Watkins. The manual includes written sabbatical policies and practice successes from numerous firms, including firms such as Arnold & Porter, Perkins Coie, and Holland & Hart, as well as best practice comparisons from corporations. The manual addresses common management concerns and client reactions, and covers the logic and logistics of making time for lawyer sabbaticals in busy and thriving practices.

Dr. Owen Whitfield is the elderly Oxford professor of history who first appeared in Michael O''Brien''s novel The Father''s Tale. In the events of The Sabbatical, which occur sometime later, Dr. Whitfield is looking forward to a sabbatical year of peace and quiet, gardening in his backyard, and tinkering with what he calls his latest "unpublishable book". As the year begins, he is drawn by a series of seeming coincidences into involvement with a group of characters from across Europe, including a family that has been the target of assassination attempts by unknown powers. During his journey to Romania, the situation in which he finds himself becomes more sinister than it first seemed. The story deals with the tension between fatalism and the providential understanding of history, with the courage and love that are necessary for navigating through a confusion of signs, and with the triumph of faith and reason over the forces of destruction.

One life sabbatical. Two laps around the world. After being married for a year, Bob Riel and his wife, Lisa, decided to take a chance in life. They took time off from their careers and embarked on a round-the-world journey, intent on having an adventure before starting a family. Then, two-and-a-half years later, when the children hadn't arrived and the travel bug hadn't left, they set out on another voyage to resume their sabbatical experience. During their two journeys, they faced the shock of a terrorist bombing in Egypt, met a Turkish carpet dealer who trained acrobatic pigeons, discussed life with Masai tribesmen, visited a Japanese family whose mother thought she knew them in another lifetime, and watched the sunrise from a boat on the Ganges River and from atop Mount Sinai. Lyrical and humorous, Two Laps Around the World is a testament to the possibilities of travel, as Bob and Lisa's explorations also grew into a series of Life Lessons and Global Rules that will inspire reflection. This captivating memoir is certain to arouse wanderlust in every reader.

Sabbaticals are becoming increasingly common practice in congregations, and while there are many books on helping pastors prepare for their time away, there are no texts that approach the experience with the congregation in mind, from start to finish. This guide for congregations and their pastors draws on nearly two decades of wisdom from the Lily Endowment Clergy Renewal Program and helps draw the conversation away from a pastor-centric model and towards a holistic congregational framework for thinking about how the entire community can benefit from a pastor’s sabbatical.
