Description: Noise. Hurry. Crowds. heartens the Christian student to swim upstream against the culturally normative distracted life into the beauty and bounty of the with-God life. Through practical insights, students will be strengthened for the small wins that establish the practices of silence, Sabbath, solitude, and simplicity. This is a potent summons to today's college student to sow the proper seeds for the peace of God to rule over the chaos of life." BARBARA MILLER Director of Christian Formation & Ministry, Biola University.
