<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p><b>Feeling worn thin? Come find rest. </b></p><p>The Blue Ridge Parkway meanders through miles of rolling Virginia mountains. It's a route made famous by natural beauty and the simple rhythms of rural life.<br/><br/>And it's in this setting that Hannah Anderson began her exploration of what it means to pursue a life of peace and humility. Fighting back her own sense of restlessness and anxiety, she finds herself immersed in the world outside, discovering a classroom full of forsythia, milkweed, and a failed herb garden. Lessons about soil preparation, sour mulch, and grapevine blights reveal the truth about our dependence on God, finding rest, and fighting discontentment.<br/><br/><i>Humble Roots</i> is part theology of incarnation and part stroll through the fields and forest. Anchored in the teaching of Jesus, Anderson explores how cultivating humility--not scheduling, strict boundaries, or increased productivity--leads to peace.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>Feeling worn thin?
