Worry Less Pray More Large Print PDF Download

Judy Christie meets us where we are, in a frenzied, out-of-control frame of mind, and helps us begin to have a deeper understanding of the joy of the Christmas season and its deep meaning for our lives overall—and how that can be a starting point for a more abundant life in the new year. In Hurry Less, Worry Less at Christmas, Christie guides us to a more helpful, Christian understanding of this time of year. Aspects of the liturgical calendar are introduced as part of this process, including the Christian understandings of Advent, Christmas, and Epiphany. She gives us practical tools for coping with holiday pressures but above all stresses the need for transformation from a secular perspective to a Christian one. Hurry Less Worry Less at Christmas will assist in identifying what people love about the holiday season and what they want to change. The book can also be used as a study book for church small groups or Sunday school classes, leading up to the holidays. This updated edition contains new content to help make the Christmas season even more joyful, peaceful, and meaningful. “In her delightful, contemporary, and practical book, Judy Christie takes the ‘Grinch’ out of holiday preparations.

I’ve already started planning a simpler, calmer holiday season this year.” --Cynthia Bond Hopson, Author of Bad Hair Days, Rainy Days, and Mondays “Judy Christie provides a welcome reminder to wait upon the Lord, and some practical, real-life steps toward comfort, joy, and simplicity.” --Rob Weber, Co-author of Beginnings: The Spiritual Life
