What would it take to feel renewed every day? Instead of waiting for a vacation to smooth out the tensions of life, instead of waiting until the end of the week to shed our weariness, what if we could take time out every day? Live a renewed life every day? Be refreshed by God every day?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eSacred Pauses\u003c\/i\u003e offers simple ways for readers to do just that. Each chapter explores a different spiritual practice-from the classic disciplines of Scripture reading and prayer to other creative approaches such as paying attention, making music, and having fun. With plenty of stories from real life and ideas to try, this book is personal and practical. Its flexible format is appropriate for personal use or in a group, every day or any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFree downloadable study guide available here.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e April Yamasaki\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0836196856\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780836196856\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Herald Press (VA)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/01\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 0.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChristian Century\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/08\/2014 pg. 42","brand":"April Yamasaki","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44044878905599,"sku":"9780836196856","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_03b33f40-b26c-4a06-ac28-dfdec5e1b2bd.jpg?v=1684975440","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sacred-pauses-april-yamasaki-9780836196856","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
