Be Still

'Down to earth, practical and wise - much like Lucy! I particularly love the stillness idea each which gives readers a chance to try out ways to be still and find the one that works best for them. A valuable resource for restless hearts and times.' Rachael Newham, author and theology of mental health specialist 'Lucy's accessible and thoughtful devotional will help you to embrace God's gift of peace and rest - even if your life continues at what feels like a breakneck pace. Birthed out of a year of exploring stillness in the Bible, her guide is filled with engaging scripture and practical suggestions for how to get still and know God. One to make time for.' Amy Boucher Pye, author of Holding onto Hope and spiritual director 'Lucy's poignant stories, relatable insights, doable suggestions and thought-provoking reflections cover a helpful range of relevant scenarios where ""being still"" might evade us. Lucy's clear rich writing, her honest vulnerable sharingand at times, her gentle humour, are a gift to help anyone longingto be still yet who feels anything but.' Anne Le Tissier, speaker, preacher, devotional writer and author of Dwell 'Lucy is an empathetic fellow traveller through life's chaos and the words of her devotional are a wise and welcome guide, helping chronically busy Christians find places in their daily lives to pause and reconnect with God's peace, joy and hope.' Georgie Tennant, author of The God Who Sees 'I love that Be Still has been written by someone as busy as Lucy! It means that the text is totally relatable and honest, as she shares what she has learned after a year of delving into what the Bible has to say about being still. Understanding that most of us have responsibilities we can't lay down, Lucy unpacks why she now believes being still is a state of mind and something we can achieve whatever our circumstances.' Claire Musters, author, speaker, editor and host of the Woman Alive book club 'This book is such an encouragement. Too often we put pressure on ourselves to strive for perfection in our faith. Be Still encourages us to pause and helps us to recognise the value we already bring to the here and now.' Jack Imbert-Terry, publishing support & development manager, Bible Society 'Be Still brought deep truth in Lucy's typical relatable and encouraging way; it read like a friend gently pointing me back to God.' Andy Baker, priest in charge, St Michael le Belfrey, York 'Compassionate, realistic and Bible-centred - Lucy manages to encourage a habit of stillness without making ""Be still"" into just another goal to achieve!'
