Reclaiming Quiet: Cultivating a Life of Holy Attention
Recapture wonder and learn to live by the healing shapes and rhythms of stillness
In a restless and distracted world, the cultivation of quiet often feels abstract and impossible. But quiet is, and always has been, essential to spiritual life, the only way we can turn from the frenzy toward the peace for which we were created.
Reclaiming Quiet is an invitation to discover the profound, daily joy of resisting patterns of anxiety and hurry and cultivating a life of holy attention instead. With practical strategies to address our use of screens or fear of silence and compassionate ideas to nourish stillness, listening, and rest, this book explores
● what it means to become a person who listens each day for God's voice before all others
● how to reclaim wonder in prayer
● how to cultivate an interior life
Quiet is not for specialists or the ultradisciplined. It's not limited to those who have great swathes of time. Quiet is our inner native land, the place to which we turn to find God already waiting, calling us beloved, and drawing us homeward into a life of holy and joyous attention.
