John Mark Comer Knihy

Aký človek sa to zo mňa stáva? Táto otázka znepokojovala pastora a spisovateľa Johna Marka Comera. Navonok síce pôsobil ako úspešný človek, no v jeho vnútri nebolo všetko v poriadku. A tak sa s prosbou o radu obrátil na dôveryhodného mentora, od ktorého si vypočul tieto slová: „Povedz neúprosné nie zhonu. Najväčším nepriateľom duchovného života je uponáhľanosť.“ Takú odpoveď síce nečakal, ale dodnes sa presviedča o tom, že práve to potreboval. Namiesto toho, aby sme sa pokúsili presne pomenovať príčinu toxicity moderného sveta, mnohokrát iba riešime symptómy. Čoraz častejšie zaznievajú hlasy, ktoré za koreň veľkej časti zla považujú práve zhon a zaneprázdnenosť. Na stránkach tejto knihy nájdete pôsobivý návod, ako si v chaose moderného sveta udržať emočné zdravie a duchovný život. Presvedčivé dôkazy proti uponáhľanosti a v prospech jednoduchšieho, pomalšieho života.

ECPA BESTSELLER • A compelling emotional and spiritual case against hurry and in favor of a slower, simpler way of life—from the New York Times bestselling author of Practicing the Way “Prophetic, practical, and profoundly life giving . . . provides a way forward that creates hope, hunger, and a vision of a beautiful life. I consider this required reading.”—Jon Tyson, lead pastor of the Church of the City New York and author of Beautiful Resistance “Who am I becoming?” That was the question nagging pastor and author John Mark Comer. Outwardly, he appeared successful. But inwardly, things weren’t pretty. So he turned to a trusted mentor for guidance and heard these words: “Ruthlessly eliminate hurry from your life. Hurry is the great enemy of the spiritual life.” It wasn’t the response he expected, but it was—and continues to be—the answer he needs. Too often we treat the symptoms of toxicity in our modern world instead of trying to pinpoint the cause. A growing number of voices are pointing at hurry, or busyness, as a root of much evil. Within the pages of this book, you’ll find a fascinating roadmap to staying emotionally healthy and spiritually alive in the chaos of the modern world.

Garden City, by John Mark Comer, is a fresh take on our work, our calling, and finding our purpose.

It's about the reality that what we do matters, just as much as who we are---and a reminder that we were never meant to pull the two apart.

"The bestselling author of The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry equips readers to recognize the lies and resist the forces that seek to steal their happiness, wholeness, and holiness"--Publisher's description

You're right. Now come discover just how much life awaits you.

Hier geht es darum, eine Vision wiederzufinden. Eine Vision, die seit Ewigkeiten im Herz Gottes verborgen ist. Eine Vision, die Sinn, Ziel und Fokus gibt, wie wir hier und jetzt ganzheitlich Mensch sein können. Wie wir die guten Kreisläufe wiederfinden, die Gott im Garten Eden eingeführt hat. Damit sich sein Überfluss an Leben, Frieden und Wohlbefinden multipliziert! Dafür gibt er uns einen Auftrag: die Erde mit diesem Leben zu füllen. Und einen Rhythmus: Arbeit und Ruhe. Und einen Weg: zu herrschen, in seiner versöhnten, göttlichen, elternschaftlichen Art.
