This book is a real gem! Reclaiming Quiet Is not about finding a life with the absence of noise, but instead about finding a way to quiet the noisy life and allow God to be more central in your life. Sarah Clarkson has included wonderful questions to ponder at the end of each chapter to help the reader take the next steps in cultivating a quiet life. I have really enjoyed this book and have learned a lot of tools.

This book is one everyone should read. In our world so full of noise and distractions, Sarah invites us to take a deep breath and just pause. To learn to cultivate a heart that is at peace, regardless of what the news or social media is screaming. So grab a hot cup of coffee and sit down with this wise friend to remember that we have a sure hope in a God who holds all things in His hands and who is bringing peace and redemption to our world that is so broken.

If you want confirmation that we are created for a healthy amount of Quiet, then run to get this book. It is written from a humble, honest Christian perspective and speaks right to the heart of what we need in the Busy world that demands Productivity every day as a measure of one’s worth.

Sarah owns her stories beautifully, inspiring others to reclaim quiet in their daily lives by shutting out the noise one exercise at a time. I like that each chapter ended with a prayer, although I was surprised to see so much talk of aged with virtually no inclusion of scripture within the book.

I was fortunate to be able to read a digital copy before this book will come out on November 5th. Although the book is beautifully written, the author never talks down to the reader and the book is easy to understand by this not native English speaker. Sarah rather takes the reader by the hand and asks practical questions at the end of each chapter and makes a daunting quest (for quiet) more manageable.
