Slow Theology

Hearing God‘s Voice in a Fast-Paced World Outrageous headlines grab our attention. Social media offers immediate satisfaction. Knee-jerk reactions reign supreme. And despite our constant connectivity, our lives increasingly lack true connection. In this insightful book, A. J. Swoboda and Nijay Gupta offer eight everyday practices for slowing down amid the frenetic pace of life. These practices help us fortify our faith and discern God‘s voice. "This book is a breath of fresh air. Whether you are skeptical about Christianity or exhausted with theological bickering, A. J. and Nijay present a vision of Christian theology that just might inspire you to greater study of and relationship with God." -- Kaitlyn Schiess , senior editor, Holy Post Media; author of The Ballot and the Bible "A great invitation to slow down, breathe, and believe afresh." -- Michael F. Bird , deputy principal, Ridley College, Melbourne, Australia "A. J. and Nijay are calm voices of leadership in a time of great chaos. Slow Theology will help you endure." -- Heather Thompson Day , author of What If I‘m Wrong? "Swoboda and Gupta paint a beautiful, compelling, and deeply theological vision of living and walking with God at a pace that humanizes, nourishes, and leads to the flourishing of our souls." -- Jon Tyson , author and pastor of Church of the City New York (jontyson.org) "Every page pulses with grace, truth, and an unflinching belief in the God who never rushes but always redeems. I will be recommending this book to pastors, students, and weary saints everywhere." -- Tara Beth Leach , author of The Great Morning Revolution
