Beautiful, insightful, filled with wisdom and depth
Format: Paperback
This is, hands down, the most beautiful, meaningful book I have read this year. It is also already topping my list of favorite books of all time; it is so masterfully written. Sarah Clarkson is a gifted storyteller who writes with grace, wisdom, vulnerable insight, and the art of weaving into her work the tone of a kindred spirit. Her personal perspective on capturing the essence of quiet-- even in the midst of the pulls and noise of life-- is gleaned from years of study as well as personal hunger and pursuit. As someone in a busy, sometimes chaotic time of life, I have found myself craving a deeper peace and centered calm that has felt illusive and impossible. I have been so eager for Ms. Clarkson's book to be released, and it was absolutely worth waiting for. I keep returning to its pages to let the words soak in, like water to a weary soul. Her words are lyrical, almost musical to read, and each story she shares, or quote from a book or poem, is chosen carefully to speak perfectly to the topic of quiet. I know this will be a book to read over and over again, to continue to grasp the truth it holds-- always pointing back to the true Master of our peace-- Christ.

A refuge in the noise of life
Format: Paperback
There are some books that are so good, so nourishing, so deeply satisfying and life giving to read that it is hard to know how to write a review that does them justice. This is one of those books. As if she is sitting across the cafe table from you, drinking her coffee and sharing her life, Sarah is a master story teller who captivates your attention as she tells story after story that pertains to her personal quest and exploration of the pursuit of Quiet.
The chapters have titles such as "the halcyon day", "wise woman's cottage", and "seeing from the inside". Subtitles include "imagination, "assent and amazement", and "cadence". Split into sections (the nature of quiet, the shape of quiet, the gifts of quiet) this book takes the subject of a True Quiet and wrestles, examines, instructs about, and celebrates it from all angles.
I've read books that talk about how to have new habits and rhythms, slowing down in our busy social media filled age, and bringing order the the chaos of daily life, but this book trumps them all with the questions it asks, the way in which she communicates what she has learned.
Every chapter ends with prayer and more questions and thoughts to ponder. The structure lends beautifully to a small group discussion.
I know I will be rereading and pondering over the ideas in this book for a long time (I am not usually a highlighter and book marker but this one is covered with passages I just had to mark and remember).
This is a perfect book to read as we enter the end-year holiday season and I want to give to all my friends and family to nurture and encourage their souls. Sarah pulls from across her lifetime with her personal experiences, lessons, and tales, so I believe you can read this at any stage of adulthood and you will be encouraged and strengthened in your faith. This will be a book you keep reaching for it again and again that will continue to instruct, encourage, and inspire you across the years.
It should say "Welcome weary traveler, enter to find rest".
(This is probably one of the longest reviews I've ever written so bear with me if there are typos.)

This book is a grace…
Format: Paperback
In a world increasingly characterized by noise-from the actual noise of electric gadgets & gizmos to the societal noise of online activity, constantly refreshing posts & pages, & opinions at the ready on everything happening all the time-this book is a breath, an exhale, a pause.
Sarah Clarkson offers not a ready-made formula for navigating the online world or strategies for self-care, but an invitation to explore, alongside her, another way of being, a world where deep, soul-healing quiet is available. She uses her own story to ask universal questions of origin, design & relationship with our Maker. You don't feel when reading that you're sitting under the teachings of a lofty, "arrived" guru, but that you're taking the extended hand of a fellow traveler as you walk home together. Sarah's writing is a companion, a warm conversation over tea & a deeply enriching exploration of life with God & at peace with ourselves.
Engaging, academic (yet readable), inspiring & kind. Welcome to Sarah Clarkson's beautiful writing-a gift. I am *so* pleased she has decided to share with the world.

Devotional classic for our time
Format: Paperback
“I’ve always borne a hunger for something that seemed as distant as starlight and as wide as the night sky itself. I want the world and what is behind it, the potent beauty it simultaneously reveals and veils. I think we all do…”
If you can feel the intensity of this hunger in your own life and wonder how to acknowledge it in the midst of too-busy lives and a myriad of distractions, you will be inspired to rest within the tension of this by "Reclaiming Quiet”.
Sarah Clarkson has followed her previous study of God’s goodness, This Beautiful Truth, with this soothing expression of our need for quiet in order to experience the extraordinary. Using a similar narrative of personal memoir and spiritual discovery, she describes her own journey towards being satisfied with the quiet of the ordinary. She writes of how the distractions inherent in our world, while ostensibly a quest for the extraordinary, can actually lead us in the opposite direction, and how learning to cultivate quiet is so necessary. “Quiet in this world; perhaps is most often the vessel that bears us out of darkness and into hope."
Each chapter closes with a gentle prayer and an invitation to ponder our own discoveries through thought-provoking questions relating to what we’ve just read.
Reclaiming Quiet is surely destined to be a devotional classic for our time. I read an advance copy but I’ve already pre-purchased copies to give away and I’m planning to reread Reclaiming Quiet as a personal devotional study, but it would also be perfect as a group read/ study.

Lovely
Format: Paperback
"Because God does not change and his kindness does not end, though the mountains shift and whole worlds crumble, and to actually believe this means to live a different kind of life from one tossed and overturned by news of every new disaster."
Love the Clarkson family's books and stories. Such a wonderful way with words. I disagree with some of the theology but still consider this a good read.
