Travis West has been on a Sabbath journey since 2006. It has transformed his life in more ways than he can imagine or articulate. It has saved his marriage. It has literally saved his life. Travis is now a Sabbath evangelist. He wants nothing more than for everyone to experience the life-giving, delight-drenched, joy-blooming gift of Sabbath.

Beyond being a pilgrim walking the Sabbath way, Travis is a husband to Mariah (since 2003), a son, a brother, an uncle, a friend, and a neighbor. He is also a Professor of Hebrew and Old Testament at Western Theological Seminary in Holland, MI, and the author of four books.

Travis also preaches regularly and speaks in churches, colleges, and organizations on a variety of topics, most notably on Sabbath and how to find the rest our souls long for.
