Synopsis

Life is filled with uncertainty, and people have never needed peace more. When it comes down to it, what keeps us from experiencing peace in our lives is either living in the past or living for the future. When we obsess over what's already happened or put all of our efforts into creating a picture-perfect tomorrow, we miss what God has for us here and now. The result is regret over what we can't change, and anxiety over what we feel we must change. That's not what God wants for us.

With honest transparency, hope-filled compassion, and plenty of vulnerable humor, pastor Jeanne Stevens reveals the shockingly simple path to peace: presence. She helps you slow down, center yourself, and ask the all-important question, What's here now? Jeanne gives listeners practical tools to move from obsessing about the past or worrying about the future to experiencing peace and purpose in the present moment.

By incorporating this simple question into your everyday life, you will experience freedom from unhealthy patterns of relating to God and others through the avenues of shame, guilt, worry, and anxiety.

Goodreads review by Amber on November 05, 2022

My relationship to religion is complex in that I never bought into the institution but I’ve come to respect many women who write to empower other women to slow down, better know and honor themselves, as an act of bold, important loving. That this can be in concert with Him and His word is a newer id......more
