To speak about the increasing speed of our culture and its impact on the human psyche may sound cliché, but it is real. Advances in technology continue to consume our personal resources, especially time and attention. While technology offers many benefits, it also creates relentless pressure: constant texts, social media notifications, emails, and calls demand immediate responses “24/7.” In the whirlwind of information and expectation, we are losing the ability to slow down and simply be present with our surroundings, including other human beings. We find ourselves searching for peace, rest, contentment, and deep, meaningful relationships.
A Deep, Innate Need for Rest
Deep within, we all yearn for peace and rest. This need cannot be silenced, no matter how much we distract ourselves. Science confirms the negative effects of stress and overstimulation, while also highlighting the benefits of rest, relaxation, and sleep. We can easily imagine peaceful moments — perhaps on a serene beach or in a quiet nature setting — but truly experiencing peace, even briefly, is far more elusive. Finding real rest throughout our busy days requires intentionality and daily commitment to quiet and stillness.
Stillness Reveals the Heart
Completely unplugging is challenging, as stillness exposes our inner realities. We confront the inadequacy of our humanity and the truth that we cannot achieve lasting peace on our own. Over centuries, humans have tried countless techniques to quiet the mind, yet all fall short. The reality is that we are in need of a Savior — someone greater than ourselves who alone provides the security and rest we long for.

Emerging from one church community’s journey to make room for God in their daily lives, this book is a compilation of guidance from Scripture, experiences of past believers, and lessons learned from the author’s own spiritual walk.
The book shows how Jesus draws us into communion with Himself and how those encounters transform our hearts and lives. It is warm, practical, and rooted in real-life experience, providing guidance for anyone seeking to make space for God in the midst of daily busyness.
