Purchase options and add-ons

Tricia McCary Rhodes offers us a fresh view of connecting to God, one that focuses on quality time and frees us from the rigidity of a devotional life that may feel stifled, grow stagnant, or bring about guilt when we can't keep up. Ideas at the end of each chapter and suggestions for prayer experiments give practical suggestions noticing God's work throughout each day.

Product description

Review

"How can we open ourselves to God in the midst of the chaos of our lives? This book, with short chapters for busy people and a section on 'Making the Chaos Sacred' at the end of every chapter, offers valuable help."

"Tricia Rhodes's walk of faith is a well-paced pilgrimage. You will find counsel enough in these pages to bleed the hassle from all frantic discipleship. And the soul at the center of your hurriedness will be a soul at rest, for you will have found that gentle pace that tells the world it will be good for them to be around you, for you have walked the edges of her wisdom."

In Sacred Chaos the disciplines become attainable; they are not limited to superhero Christians, but available to each humble believer. The tone of Rhodes' writing is never academic or removed, but always encouraging.

The author shows us that we are indeed spending time in prayer and God's presence in the everyday things we do. She gives practical simple advice on how to make the most of every minute to assure that you are experiencing God. This is an author who I will always look to for books that will assist me in continued spiritual development.

This book is [an] encouraging message for those youth workers fighting to find a little more sacred time within the incredibly chaotic demands of loving teenagers.

While I've read some books in the spiritual discplines genre that either too ethereal or too commonsense-y, Sacred Chaos is simple yet profound, practical yet deeply spiritual. Don't let one more "Sacred ___" title scare you away. This one's a keeper.

    This is a very good book. It draws you closer to the Lord as you see how you can and how you want to be closer to Him in the midst of the chaos of everyday life. Gives practical ideas that I really like.

    Title is very apt and very true. Found lots of inspiring and doable spiritual discipline here. Tricia Rhodes gets the life of the committed American working wife, mom, woman in lay ministry. I will read this again, and share it.

    Many many great ideas for getting more of the Lord into your daily life. Includes reasons we don't connect and how to overcome that type of thinking.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Great book to simplify the important
    Reviewed in the United States on 7 October 2009
    There are many disciplines that we want to undertake as Christians in our efforts to know Christ deeper and walk closer to Him. Unfortunately, we sometimes get so caught up in the "have to's" and "how to's" that we lose the reason why we are doing them in the first place. This book takes these disciplines and simplifies them, makes them easier to incorportate in our daily lives. By incorporating some of these into our lives, I believe we will be able to stress less and worship more. Worth the money and the time to read.
