Embracing Soul Care: Making Space for What Matters Most

by Stephen W. Smith, Gary Chapman (Foreword)

We live in a high-maintenance world—cars, homes, computers, and even relationships need continual attention. But what about our souls, the center of our selves where our passions, gifts, and individuality unite? Do we ever consider what it means to care for our souls? In a world where the quick fix and instant gratifications are many people's most immediate focus, author Steve Smith invites the reader to focus on what truly matters most—the lifelong process of nurturing our souls by focusing on relationships, spiritual and personal growth and healing, and living out God's purpose for our lives. Step off the hamster wheel of endless activity and purposeless action to find a deeper sense of self and spiritual transformation. Foreword by Dr. Gary Chapman.

Reviews

[Eva Burkholder]

This book should be on every nightstand or part of every morning ritual. Smith’s 92 short reflections with thoughtful questions lead us into true soul care. Go through this book with a mentor or friend to get the full benefit. Apply the practices and your soul will be well cared for.

[John Steen]

Great book to help you learn why & how to take care of your soul

[Amy Young]

Liked that it was in small chunks and also had questions for further reflection at the end of each entry.
