Terry Hershey, an ordained minister and popular speaker, understands that life is busy and getting busier. However, he also knows from personal experience that there is always a price to pay if we don't regularly take time simply to pause-to cease activity, to treasure quiet time, and to discern the deep meaning of life's little moments.

In The Power of Pause, Hershey counters the cultural decree that says we cannot lead a fulfilling life unless we are constantly doing something and, at least metaphorically speaking, going somewhere. Through fifty-two short chapters-each filled with an inspiring quote, a powerful story/meditation, and a specific call to action-we come to realize the profound value of stillness in our days and balance in our lives. Most important, we are challenged by Hershey's meditations to rethink how it is that we can best move forward in our lives; the process of pausing is what allows us to make intentional decisions rather than reactionary ones, and to refocus our lives and goals on the things that truly count.

From overworked employees to overwhelmed parents, from ministry leaders to spiritual seekers, The Power of Pause encourages all of us to slow down, reconnect with what's important, and take back the life we were always intended to have. In the end, we will become more only when we learn to do less.
