I get so excited when I get to talk about one of the things I am most passionate about! The 5 Elements Of Christ-Centered Slow Living is about ditching overwhelm for good! A busy life is often a life of idolatry. Ouch! I know that hurts.
Our culture has a love affair with being busy. I believe we are not alone and many places around the globe also have “busy” built into their DNA. In other words, this causes a problem over time and the quality of life of God’s created people diminishes. We were never created to be busy.
Yes, we have busy days and even busy seasons, however, human beings were never meant to be able to sustain this kind of physical, emotional, and spiritual demand upon our lives. This kind of living leads to a constant state of overwhelm. Living outside of God’s boundaries can lead to unhealthy and ungodly behaviors in the fundamental areas of our lives.
Christ-Centered Slow Living means intentionally choosing to make God the center of your life. It means prioritizing prayer, God’s Word, and pursuing His will over lesser things. Slow living does not look the same for every person, and that is a part of its enticing beauty. No two people were created the same. We have different purposes, skills, giftings, energy levels, and personalities, and are in various life stages. Above all, the comforting truth is that Christ-Centered Slow Living will benefit every individual and especially bless families pursuing this lifestyle!

Are you tired, weary, or overwhelmed?
Pursuing Christ-Centered Slow Living is a process. It is not an all-at-once kind of thing and requires learned traits like being slow, steady, patient, and a lifelong learner. Giving up stress for peace, busyness for unhurried, being overwhelmed for calm, and controlling for reflection.
