Shemitah: The Earth Gets to Breathe and Creation Heals

By Allison Eley

Shemitah: The Earth Gets to Breathe and Creation Heals invites families into the powerful biblical rhythm of the Sabbath year, when Yahweh commanded the land to rest, debts were released, and people were called to trust His provision. Through engaging storytelling and gentle teaching, this picture book helps children and parents understand how the Shemitah brings renewal to the earth, compassion to communities, and rest to weary hearts.

Part of the Yahweh's Rhythms and Reminders collection, this book explores the biblical foundations of the Shemitah found in Leviticus 25 and Deuteronomy 15, showing how obedience leads to flourishing for people, animals, and creation itself. Families will discover how Yahweh's instructions are not burdens but gifts-designed to bring balance, generosity, and life.

This book includes family discussion questions, practical ways to celebrate the Shemitah principles today, and a meaningful family blessing, making it ideal for homeschool study, family discipleship, and faith-based children's education. It encourages readers to slow down, trust the Creator, and realign with His design for rest, release, and restoration.
