The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry

Book • 2019
In 'The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry', John Mark Comer argues that hurry and busyness are significant enemies of spiritual life.

The book offers a roadmap for staying emotionally healthy and spiritually alive by adopting a slower, simpler way of life.

Comer draws from his personal experiences and spiritual disciplines to provide practical advice on how to slow down and cultivate a deeper intimacy with God. He emphasizes the importance of practices such as prayer, fasting, and sabbath rest to overcome the challenges of modern life and find true fulfillment.
