The Way of Interruption: Spiritual Practice for Organizational Life

by Bill Simmons

Overview

In The Way of Interruption, international ministry CEO Bill Simmons reveals a transformative approach: embracing ancient spiritual practices specifically adapted for today's workplace. Pulling from his years of organizational leadership and spiritual formation, Simmons calls us to practices that include:

• A year-long corporate Psalter that brings Scripture naturally into team life
• Carefully crafted liturgies for organizational milestones and moments
• Simple yet profound meeting practices that reorient work toward God
• A guide for creating sacred space honoring denominational diversity of staff 

By incorporating these time-tested rhythms, organizations can cultivate spiritual health among staff and free leaders to lead well. 

Discover how letting go of control and embracing established practices can transform your organization's spiritual culture from an obligation into a life-giving journey that draws teams naturally toward God.
