Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

Terry Hershey, popular speaker and frequent retreat leader, understands that life is busy and getting busier. However, he also knows from personal experience that there is an inevitable price to pay if we don't regularly take time simply to pause and let our souls catch up with our bodies.

In The Power of Pause, Hershey counters the cultural decree that says we must always be busy if life is to be fulfilling. Through 52 short chapters featuring powerful stories, inspiring quotations, and everyday opportunities for simplicity, we learn to relish the practice of resting as we take back the life we were always intended to have.

What if . . .

What if life isn’t about finishing on top,
but knowing when to stop?

What if life isn’t about learning to live with stress,
but learning to live with less?

What if life isn’t about pushing yourself to the limit,
but embracing every minute?

What if life isn’t about constant action,
but eliminating distraction?

What if life isn’t about what you chase,
but resting in God’s grace?

The Power of Pause will forever change the way you think about and live your life. When you develop the capacity to do less, you’ll find that you can become so much more—more present to those you love and to your own life, more in awe of the daily joys and wonders of this world, more focused on the little things, which are really the big things.

If you’re ready to be totally surprised by the gift of stillness, then it’s time to experience the power of pause—for the “rest” of your life!
