À propos de cette écoute
Tired of quick fixes and fast faith? This book is an invitation to unhurried honesty before God. If yesterday’s word was simple, tomorrow’s word will be slow.
Our culture is shifting from fast food to healthy food both physically and spiritually. Self-care, soul-care, life coaches, and spiritual retreats all show our dissatisfaction in quick fixes and fast faith. The Sacred Slow invites you to God’s unhurried honesty.
Formatted as 52 experiences, The Sacred Slow reminds listeners at every moment that God never wanted to use them—He always wanted to love them. The overflow of Dr. Alicia Britt Chole’s more than thirty years as a spiritual mentor to leaders and learners as well as her personal, practical, and penetrating tone will guide you to a richer, more life-giving relationship with God.
Perfect for use as a devotional or in small groups, each chapter features:
- A short, unexpected reading
- Two options for application—a thought focus or a heart exercise
- Encouragement to develop growing, sustainable intimacy with God
Whether you’re exhausted by emptiness or worn from weariness, you’ll discover healing and restoration here. In this age of distraction, learn to slow down and reorient your life to learn, grow, and experience God as never before.
Accompanying charts and worksheets are included in the audiobook companion PDF download.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Commentaires
'This book is simply stunning. Whether you're exhausted by emptiness or worn thin from weariness, you'll discover healing, restoration, and the God-life waiting for you in these pages. That gut-level, gnawing sense that there's got to be more—well, it wasn't your imagination. This book will help you spelunk the depths of God like never before.
—Margaret Feinberg, Author of Flourish
'In a world where the words fast, instant, automatic, rapid, speedy, ready-made and prefabricated are marketed as that which is preferable and desirable, mistakenly there has developed a spirituality that trumpets the instantaneous, the quick, the immediate, and the right now as being signs of the hand of God. This has resulted in what Alicia Britt Chole correctly terms 'fast faith.' In The Sacred Slow, Alicia provides a corrective call away from addiction to experiences and into developing intimacy with God. With the care of a seasoned spiritual director, she lovingly takes us on a deliberate journey into points and places of trans-parency and closeness with God that can only occur over time. It is a journey well worth taking.
—Senior pastor, The Park Church, Charlotte, NC
'It's hard to find an appropriate sentence or two to describe The Sacred Slow. It's like asking someone to describe their life in three minutes—impossible! Alicia has poured thirty years and countless hours into this content, asking the reader to breathe, to think, to dig deep, to see soul health restored, and in turn, to see the joy of daily living reinstated. With my whole heart I endorse not only the book but the writer, who lives as she writes and walks as she asks us to. Take the time and dive in deep.'
—Darlene Zschech, Pastor, worship leader, author
