A profound exploration of the ache for quiet in a chaotic, noisy time of overstimulation and distraction—and the transformative effects of solitude, silence, and stillness—from the New York Times bestselling author of Practicing the Way and The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry.

Modern living is inundated with noise, busyness, and a digital cycle fueled by outrage and fear. We are anxious, overstimulated, exhausted, and bone-dry in our souls. We ache for God yet can barely pay attention.

Drawing on the wisdom of the contemplative tradition and spiritual practices that date back to the earliest centuries of the church, Comer invites readers to rediscover an ancient path of quiet, peace, and serenity—to step out of the chronic noise and constant motion of the modern world into the still, silent presence of the God of peace.

What The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry was to the speed of the modern world, this book is to the noise of it.

As with the pace of modern living, the volume of the modern world can cut off our hearts from God, colonize our minds, and make “practicing the presence of God” virtually impossible. It can damage our bodies and degrade our spirits.

Comer is convinced quiet is the antidote—not just the quiet of a retreat or a morning hour, but an intentional quest to de-noise your overall life.

And in doing so, to live just a little slower and softer before God.

Commentaires

“The noise of the world doesn’t just hurt your ears—it harms your soul. John Mark Comer shows in this wonderful book how to step back from the world and find God in stillness.”—Arthur C. Brooks, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Build the Life You Want

“In a world of overwhelming noise, this is a thoughtful and powerful hymn to tuning in to the precious quiet that will set you free.”—Johann Hari, New York Times bestselling author of Stolen Focus and Magic Pill

“If you are like me, there is some resistance to dive headfirst into the deep of silence and truly face God and at times my own demons. John Mark Comer patiently and beautifully stands at the entrance to the cave of the deep, and not only does he speak to our fears, but he also compels us to understanding that there is no real life or healing anywhere but here with Jesus. This is the thing your soul is craving.”—Jennie Allen, New York Times bestselling author of Get Out of Your Head

“How can we ever strip ourselves of ego, self-image, and the trauma we carry from our wounds; of the hype, fads, and ideologies that we inhale everywhere; of our pathological busyness; and of our habitual unconscious posturing? How do we attain nakedness of soul? Into the quiet suggests a way, the way of Jesus and the way of the desert. This book transcends all denominational differences. It’s an invitation to everyone to enter a deeper part of our souls.”—Ronald Rolheiser, professor of spirituality at Oblate School of Theology in San Antonio, Texas, and author of The Holy Longing
