The Urgency of Slowing Down: Biblical Wisdom for Everyday Renewal

If Jesus took time away from the demands of life for stillness, rest, and prayer, shouldn't His followers do the same? Yet living in a whirlwind of constant motion is all too familiar. Our many responsibilities and relationships are important: we want to go to our child's game and say yes to that assignment at work and help lead that group at church. But when we go, go, go at the world's pace, the anxiety and burnout start to weigh on our souls. Laura Smith invites you to pause, exhale, and explore what the Bible says about slowing down. With scriptural insights and relatable personal stories, Laura offers practical habits for resisting the hectic and holding on to the slow. Packed with different ways Christians over the centuries have tapped into the abundant life of Jesus, 24 short chapters lay out spiritual and physical practices such as prayer, Sabbath, saying no, gratitude, decluttering, celebration, and worship. If you're tired of the crazy pace of your life but don't know how to get off the merry-go-round, The Urgency of Slowing Down is for you. Take a few minutes each day to read a chapter so you can learn to slow down right where you are to look for God, listen for His voice, and fill your heart and mind with His presence.
