The In-Between: Embracing the Tension Between Now and the Next Big Thing
Overview
Jeff Goins has penned a beautiful reminder that time is sacred, of how even ordinary moments brim with heaven, and that great souls are forged in the crucible of delay. What a delight.Ian Morgan Cron, bestselling author ofJesus, My Father, the CIA, and Me: A Memoir...of SortsandChasing Francis: A Pilgrim's Tale If you find yourself in the quiet valley of waiting, Jeff Goins offers a kind voice in the silence. This gently honest book challenged me to surrender to the waiting moments rather than try to rush ahead to the next thing-a simply lovely read.Emily P. Freeman, author ofA Million Little WaysandGrace for the Good GirlIn the past few years I've had the honor of watching Jeff Goins transition from a writer into a thought leader and one of the most exciting next generation voices. In this book, you'll see why and perhaps even more importantly how he did it.Jon Acuff, New York Times Bestselling author ofStartJeff Goins is a master wordsmith. And this book is no exception. In it, he uses his personal journey and struggles to paint a poignant picture of what life could be like if you stopped rushing and started embracing each moment-even those seemingly long moments when you're stuck waiting for the next thing. Instead of living life wishing you could jump ahead to the next adventure, these pages will inspire you to slow down and savor the in-between.Crystal Paine, founder of MoneySavingMom.com According to Jeff Goins, life is more about waiting than we'd like. We try to avoid it at all costs. We linger over a past we can't repeat (or don't want to) or long for a future we can't reach. Either way we are not present to what is happening now. And that is precisely where the important stuff is happening. This book is a powerful reminder that we must embrace the 'long game' of life, if we are to experience the love, joy, and peace we seek.Michael Hyatt, New York Times Bestselling Author, Former CEO of Thomas Nelson Publishers The In-Betweenis a happy little reminder to stop hating the waiting, a lesson I've had to learn over & over again.Myquillyn Smith, author ofThe Nesting Place I distinctly remember, in second grade, thinking that my life would be perfect once I was a fifth grader-and so my thinking went until I was about 32. Needless to say, Jeff's book resounds clear to me, as a clarion call to live in the moment and make the most of life's waiting room moments. His storytelling is captivating and full of warmth and humor; this book is for anyone who loves to read stories about travel, wisdom, and redemption. I am thankful Jeff put into words the issue so many of us struggle with-how to be content when we live in-between.Tsh Oxenreider, author and blogger at SimpleMom.net Jeff Goins retells his life-so-far story, pointing out the treasures found along the way, and I'm suddenly more aware of the overlooked richness of my own life.
