Bruce may be a bit too analytical for his own good, but his insights are excellent, and completely\u00a0advantageous\u00a0for anyone feeling burned out, or feeling too busy. Scads of practical helps and strategies make this an ideal book for groups, interesting discussions, and swift\u00a0implementation.<\/p>\n
Miller solidly proves that balance is a burden, with a built-in pose to secure, while rhythm offers us the freedom to live and function like organic creatures. He shows how the rest of the natural world around us operates in rhythm, and this approach is quite livable. The author makes the distinction between two helpful ways to view time: Kairos and Chronos, and includes a number of case studies that are followed through their progress, making the transformation, for the willing reader, more likely.<\/p>\n
Ruth Barton’s Sacred Rhythms<\/em> is far more poetic and filled with an artistic, even natural rhythmic approach in its actual style. It feels more peaceful to read, then this kind of handbook approach, which is still quite viable. However, if a reader thinks Miller will read like Barton, brace for disappointment. This is written cut and dry, masculinely, with strategies, tips, tricks, and lists. Miller has an engineer’s mind. I feel it’s nice to read a variety of voices on the topic of living life in rhythm, and I would actually suggest both books.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Book review of “Your Life in Rhythm,” by Bruce Miller, from Tyndale Publishing, and a mention of Ruth Barton’s, “Sacred Rhythms.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5,9],"tags":[335,336,467,512,702,898,1904,2162,2877,2932,2939,78,3398,3541,3792],"class_list":["post-346","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-authors","category-books","tag-balance","tag-balanced-life","tag-book-review","tag-bruce-miller","tag-chronos","tag-dallas-theological-seminary","tag-kairos","tag-mckinney-fellowship","tag-rhythm","tag-ruth-barton","tag-sacred-rhythms","tag-stress","tag-the-leadership-baton","tag-tyndale-publishing-house","tag-your-life-in-rhythm"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/346","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=346"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/346\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5067,"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/346\/revisions\/5067"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=346"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=346"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=346"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
