WINNER OF THE WORD GUILD 2019 CHRISTIAN LIVING BOOK OF THE YEAR
AWARD "The pages you are about to read may feel like a literal
rescue." -Ann Voskamp, New York Times Bestselling author Survival
Guide for the Soul is a profound spiritual exploration of God's
love-a love that many of us understand intellectually without fully
grasping or relying on in our day-to-day experiences-a love that
fills our sails with joy and frees us to truly flourish. Many of us
are driven by an ambition to accomplish something big outside
ourselves. On all sides, we're pressured to achieve-professionally,
socially, financially. Even when we're aware of this pressure, it
can be hard to escape the vicious circles of accomplishment,
frustration, and spiritual burn-out. Drawing on a wide range of
sources from Scripture to church history to psychology and modern
neuroscience-as well as deeply personal stories from his own
life-Ken Shigematsu, recipient of the Queen Elizabeth Diamond
Jubilee Medal and pastor of Tenth Church in Vancouver, BC, vividly
demonstrates how the gospel redeems our desires and reorders our
lives. Pastor Shigematsu offers fresh perspective on how certain
spiritual practices help orient our lives so that our souls can
flourish in the midst of a demanding, competitive society. And he
concludes with a liberating and counter-cultural definition of true
greatness. If you long to experience a deeper relationship with
Christ within the daily pressures to succeed, Survival Guide for
the Soul is packed with biblical wisdom and a godly approach to
transcend the human tendency to define ourselves by our
productivity and success. "Loaded with practical insights and
encouraging thoughts, every reader will benefit from Ken's work."
-Max Lucado, New York Times Bestselling author
Ken Shigematsu shows that spiritual formation is more than just
solitude and contemplative reflections. Spiritual formation happens
in the everyday, in each and every moment of life. For those caught
up in the busyness of work, family, and church, it often feels like
time with God is just another thing on a crowded to-do list. Ken
explains how the time-tested spiritual practice of the rule of life
can help bring busy people into a closer relationship with God. He
shows how a personal rule of life can fit almost any vocation or
life situation. In God in My Everything, you will discover how to
create and practice a life-giving, sustainable rhythm in the midst
of your demanding life. If you long for a deeper spirituality but
often feel that the busyness of life makes a close relationship
with God challenging---and, at times, seemingly impossible---this
book is for you."
