About this listen

In a noisy world, the cultivation of quiet may feel like a luxury you do not have. But it is also vital to your spiritual life. When we spend our days distracted by social media, news, entertainment, and jam-packed schedules, we make it nearly impossible to experience the kind of thought life that allows us to grow into the people God created us to be—to become more and more like Jesus. We're too busy and distracted to notice the people and situations God has placed in our path for our spiritual benefit.

Reclaiming Quiet is your invitation to discover the profound joy of resisting our cultural obsession with distraction and instead cultivating a life of holy attention. With practical strategies to add stillness, listening, and rest into your daily rhythms, this book shows you how to

- care for your inner life

- listen to the voice of God in the everyday

- stay grounded in the now while looking with hope and expectation to the future

You're more than a viewer, a user, or a consumer. You are a child of God, a recipient of his grace, a disciple who is seeking to follow him more closely. It's time to reclaim all that. It's time to seek out some holy quiet.

Reclaiming Quiet

Breathtaking! I know I will listen to this book many times, getting to know its messages and insights as a friend and companion. Much of it affirmed my own walk as a young adult, then wife, then mother, now grandmother and how the Holy Spirit accompanied me along the way. It also called me to trusting more deeply. This book will be unique to each reader, and a blessing to all.
Thank you Sarah Clarkson for persevering in your writing of this book and the gift it is to each of its readers.

The last Two chapters

Throughout this book, I found myself wishing for a more poetic touch. The complex vocabulary made it challenging for me to fully immerse myself in the text. However, one line stood out to me profoundly: "In the quiet, it doesn't have to be joy and full of insight—it can be grief." I wish I could quote it perfectly because it resonated so deeply.

Although I struggle with grammar and expression, I have to say that the final two chapters were life-changing. They brought everything together in a way that profoundly impacted me.

Good, beautiful, and true.

Sarah wrestles with the difficulty of quiet in a noisy word with prose that is both lovely and deeply moving. She does not offer platitudes, but gently redirects our gaze to the One who is ever present and speaks with a gentle whisper to His children. I will be reading this book over and over.
