Ep 64. Author A.J. Sherrill's Journey Out of Performance Christianity


Listen Later

How burning out from performance Christianity could actually save your life. AJ Sherrill teaches us how after burning out as a young church planter, he found a new rule of life based in contemplative prayer and discovered a depth to the Christian life he didn't know was available. And it all started with learning to slow down, and create rhythms of being with God throughout the day.
