John Mark Comer was a thirty-three-year-old pastor of a multisite megachurch teaching six times on Sundays when he decided his life was moving way too fast.
If you share that feeling, you should read his book, The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry.
Comer champions a simpler life, one free of extraneous possessions that eat up too many hours in the day.
He believes that our hyper-connected, multi-tasking world has become so full of distractions that we struggle to live in the moment. We hurry from one task to another without concentrating on the most important things.
“Love, joy, and peace are at the heart of all Jesus is trying to grow in the soil of your life,” Comer writes. “And all three are incompatible with hurry.”
He ended up radically changing his life to more closely follow the lessons of Jesus. In the process, Comer discovered practical steps that he could take on the road to emotional health and spiritual rewards.
You can, too.
