In Reclaiming Quiet, Sarah Clarkson invites readers to embrace the transformative power of stillness in a culture consumed by busyness. Reflecting on her personal journey toward holiness, Clarkson explores the profound joy of cultivating a life of holy attention
In Reclaiming Quiet (Baker Publishing Group), Sarah Clarkson offers an honest and truthful reflection of her journey towards holiness, inviting readers to rediscover the power of quiet in a busy world. Written in a beautiful and contemplative style, the author challenges us to consider the importance of cultivating stillness in our lives to draw closer to God.
In today’s culture, this idea of a cultivation of quiet, seems like a fleeing thought, often dismissed in the chaos of life. However, Clarkson not only captures such thoughts in an open and reflective way, but considers how important a quiet life is. Not only does it keep us in tune with God but it allows us to lean closer into him so we can hear his voice. The author goes beyond quiet as the absence of sound, but talks about quiet as: “open[ing] one up to the gift and wonder of the world”, stressing that “our capacity to be quiet will shape the whole…way we come to love and trust the living God, to have a lively faith at all”.
