Look Inside: b'The Art of Rest'

“How fascinating to read a book about one of the greatest challenges of our time, written by a man who once failed miserably in the face of that challenge. In these pages, Adam Mabry gives us what we most need—a vision of rest tethered to God, rooted in the practical, and shot through with a humorous understanding of our work-addicted folly. This book is a gift!” STEPHEN MANSFIELD, New York Times bestselling author;

host of the Stephen Mansfield Podcast “ This little jewel of a book made my heart sing. Like most of us, Adam Mabry has struggled with the modern tyranny of busyness. In this short book—easily readable even by the busiest—he shows the biblical principle of rest to be a gift of grace, a taste of heaven, and a countercultural statement of trust in our heavenly Father. An inspiring and challenging read!” CLARE HEATH-WHYTE, author of Old Wives’ Tales and Everyone a

Child Should Know “I have to admit, it made me laugh when I heard Adam was writing a book on rest. Adam is one of the hardest-working people I know, and he seems to have endless energy—but that might be why he is the perfect person to write on this topic. He is a gifted writer with an important message for everyone—rest is a gift that God wants you to enjoy. I pray that this book inspires you to learn the art of rest.” STEVE MURRELL, President, Every Nation Churches & Ministries; founding pastor, Victory Church, Manila, Philippines

“In this excellent book, Adam Mabry shows us that rest for the Christian is not optional—it’s commanded for our good. After a careful handling of a biblical theology of rest, Mabry applies God’s good command in a gospel-saturated and realistic way. This book will do you good and enable you to rest well in a restless world.” ROBIN WEEKES, Minister, Emmanuel Church, Wimbledon, UK
