Description

In today’s fast-paced world, many of us crave a slower, more meaningful way of living but hesitate, fearing we might miss out. Yet when the rush to achieve and the pressure to do more leave us exhausted and unfulfilled, it may be time to consider a different approach—one that leads to true peace and purpose. In this thoughtful and inspiring book, beloved author Jennifer Dukes Lee invites readers to embrace a life of unhurried growth by reconnecting with the natural rhythms of the earth and rediscovering the timeless wisdom of Growing Slow.

Jennifer shares her own journey of reaching the breaking point—pushing herself to succeed, constantly striving for more, and feeling the toll it took on her body, mind, and spirit. But when she finally gave herself permission to slow down and trust that all good things take time to grow, she found a new sense of freedom. Through heartfelt storytelling and deep insights, she reflects on the lessons learned from life on her family’s fifth-generation farm and the steady, intentional pace modeled by Christ. Growing Slow offers a path away from the relentless demand for bigger, faster, and more, guiding readers toward a deeply rooted life where growth is lasting and true fulfillment is found.

Following the natural rhythms of the growing season, this book will help you:

– Experience the peace that comes when you stop striving and learn to rest in Jesus
– Develop daily practices to slow your heart and mind
– Let go of unrealistic expectations and appreciate the small, meaningful moments already unfolding in your life
– Embrace intentional, steady growth through reflective prompts and practical application steps

With wisdom and encouragement, Jennifer Dukes Lee shows that slowing down isn’t falling behind—it’s the key to a more abundant, fulfilling life.
