"I am a recovering speed addict."
Beginning with this confession, pastor and spiritual director Alan Fadling describes his journey out of the fast lane and into the rhythms of Jesus. Following the framework of Jesus' earthly life, Fadling shows how the work of "unhurrying" is central to our spiritual development.
Productivity is not a sin—but the attitudes behind our work can be our undoing. So how do we find balance between our sense of calling and the call to rest? An Unhurried Life offers a way.
Now in paperback, this expanded and revised edition includes:
