Yet when going big and hustling hard leaves us stressed, empty, and out of sorts, perhaps this can be our cue to step into a far more satisfying, sustainable pace. In this crafted, inspiring read, beloved author Jennifer Dukes Lee offers a path to unhurried living by returning to the rhythm of the land and learning the ancient art of <em>Growing Slow. </em></p><p>Jennifer was once at breaking point herself, and tells her story of rude awakening to the ways her chosen lifestyle of running hard, scaling fast, and the neverending chase for results was taking a toll on her body, heart, and soul. But when she finally gave herself permission to believe it takes time to grow good things, she found a new kind of freedom. With eloquent truths and vivid storytelling, Jennifer reflects on the lessons she learned from living on her fifth-generation family farm and the insights she gathered from the purposeful yet never rushed life of Christ. <em>Growing Slow</em> charts a path out of the pressures of bigger, harder, faster, and into a more rooted way of living where the growth of good things is deep and lasting. </p><p>Following the rhythms of the natural growing season, <em>Growing Slow</em> will help you: </p><ul><li>Find the true relief that comes when you stop running and start resting in Jesus</li><li>Learn practices for unhurrying your heart and mind every day</li><li>Let go of the pressure and embrace the small, good things already bearing fruit in your life</li><li>And engage slow growth through reflection prompts and simple application steps</li></ul><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>All the hustle and hurry never gets us one step closer to the things we value most: love, connection, and meaning.

This book not only teaches peace, its very pages are peaceful. -Phylicia Masonheimer, founder and CEO of Every Woman a Theologian<br><br>My word (phrase) of the year for 2020 was 'grow slow.' I can't tell you how much I wish I'd had this book to lead me into those risky, restful, and fruitful days. But living a whole year under that banner convinced me that slow growth is where it's at. It's where striving makes way for joy, where change takes root, and abundance blossoms in front of our eyes. Jennifer Dukes Lee is a great leader and a kind guide, and this is a journey and a book I cannot suggest enough. -Jess Connolly, author of You Are the Girl for the Job and Breaking Free from Body Shame<br><br>Some books are good; others are needed. This one is both. A life well-lived for the gospel is not measured in accomplishments and results, but in how well we love God and love others, so we must trade the world's quick and easy mindset for a slow but steady heart. Growing Slow feels like a coffee date with a seasoned and trusted friend. Turn off your notifications and savor the conversation with Jennifer inside. -Michelle Myers and Somer Phoebus, lead communicators of She Works HIS Way<br><br>Sometimes our most important work is not what we do but what we finally learn to undo. With kindness and honesty, Jennifer Dukes Lee unfolds for us the spiritual discipline of un-hurrying our lives, from the way we spend our time to the way we define success. In a culture obsessed with power, productivity, and upward mobility, Growing Slow is the reminder we need to keep company with the way of Jesus. -Emily P. Freeman, Wall Street Journal bestselling author of The Next Right Thing<br><br>This is Jennifer's best book yet. As I worked my way through these pages, I noticed my breathing slowed, my muscles relaxed, and I sensed the invitation to look around and note all that's right in my world. We've bought the lie that God insists on and is somehow impressed by a flurry of activity and productivity, and it's cost us our very lives. Jesus was never in a hurry. He moved at the pace of grace. Jennifer has given us a treasured inside look at her life and journey so that we might learn to treasure our own plot of land and steward it well. There aren't enough hours in the day to do it all because we were never meant to do it all. There are enough hours in the day to live in the rhythms of grace God offers us. Every tired, hurried soul needs this book. I wholeheartedly recommend it! -Susie Larson, talk radio host, national speaker, and author of Fully Alive: Learning to Flourish, Mind, Body and Spirit<br>
