Is it possible to live with peace and purpose, even amid the stresses of life? In Relaxed, Megan Fate Marshman calls us to stop trying to 'figure it all out' and instead cultivate a relaxed, intimate relationship with a loving and forgiving God--who is not worried about a thing.
We often try to do a lot for God--without him. Relaxed is a call to let go of spiritual performance, reject our cultural tendency to live under pressure, and find freedom to walk with God and toward God, one gentle step at a time.
Jesus was never in a hurry to be anywhere other than where he was, trusting and obeying his Father. Could the same be said of us? We long to know peace, purpose, and contentment, but life's stresses, the world's discouragements, and our own striving for growth get in the way.
In Relaxed, pastor and teacher Megan Fate Marshman explores what it means to set aside our addiction to trying to figure everything out and relish a slower, compelling, powerful, and relaxed life with God. As Megan takes us word by word through Proverbs 3:5-6, she helps us discover:
The joy of a continual, intimate relationship with God
What God calls us to do with the burden of shame and guilt
What it looks like to be relaxed in the midst of grief, financial stress, mistakes, and fatigue
The freedom and forgiveness of being found "in Christ"
How to incorporate rhythms of walking with God into our everyday routines
God never intended for us to be in control. As we lean away from our own understanding and into an intentionally relaxed spiritual life, we join Jesus in trusting a God who knows what he is doing--and isn't worried about a thing.
