Do you feel rushed, hurried, and unfulfilled? Brian Gregor argues that part of the reason may be our unwillingness to set apart special times for special things. Increasingly in American culture, time is not viewed as special, but rather as an “empty container…Everything is available all the time. At first this feels liberating–no need to wait–but it’s really enslaving because it gives no rest. No genuine leisure. No time or space to be still and know that God is God (Psalm 46:10).”
On this Episode of the podcast, Dr. Gregor and I discuss how the answer to your lack of fulfillment may not be in doing more things, but in doing fewer things in more intentional ways. Along the way we discuss books, Canada, a California heat wave, and how a 19th century atheist may be a good guide for helping you to grow in your spiritual life.
The book discussed on this episode of the podcast is The Cross Before Me.
