In this Episode
Need a little still water on a noisy, rushing day? This deep, life-giving conversation with Alisa and author and professor Mark Buchanan is just that. Mark has spent the last ten years learning how to slow down and to practice paying attention—and he’s sharing what he’s learned today. One nugget of wisdom you’ll hear from him is that hearts don’t grow when they’re rushed.
Mark is the author of God Walk: Moving at the Speed of Your Soul, a beautiful call for believers of Christ to stop rushing and start walking. He’s sharing why walking is the forgotten discipline of the Christian church. Mark also talks about why cultivating a slow honors the body, and when we’re in a hurry, we miss the presence of God.
Go grab a copy of Mark’s book as you prepare to train for the Love-Paced Race.

"Thank you for this podcast. It has been such a blessing in my discipling of others and myself. I listen to it every time I take my dog for a walk and it’s the best part of the day. The ‘rev the word’ episodes are my favorite. The gift that Alisa has to teach matches my learning style and I am just so grateful."
