Summer Slowdown
Do you ever feel like life is moving too fast? That it’s going at a pace too quick for your heart?
Us too. Every season has its gift, and summer’s is one of slowness, ease, and joy. Summer Slowdown is an invitation to intentionally set a slower pace this month. To slow your mind and body, embrace stillness, and listen to the voice of Jesus.
This August, would you:
Commit to a “screenless summer” – meaning, consider stepping away from social media with us (and, if you feel prompted, any other distracting apps on your phone) for the month of August, or for whatever period makes sense for you.
Each week of August intentionally take some time to slow down. Plan time to spend with your family or your friends (suggestions of activities will be sent to you here) and carve out enough time to steep yourself in each week’s scripture, reflections, and prayers.
Everything will be sent right here from this text number, just send “Slowdown" to 1 (833) 253-3042 to be added to our list.
Slow down with us before we start back up in September!
