How would you describe Jesus in one word? Relaxed. |
Would we really describe Jesus as being relaxed? Megan Fate Marshman, author of Relaxed: Walking with the One Who Is Not Worried about a Thing, explores in her new book how Jesus was relaxed as a byproduct of time communing with the Father. "Jesus got upset, he grieved, and he had so much work to do in just a 3-year window," says Marshman. "There were reasons not to relax..." "The more I know Him, the more I realize that a relaxed life is a byproduct of intimacy with his heavenly father…. the way to get there is to know the One who is… the one who in the middle of the storm, took a nap."
"Becoming more relaxed will happen, not as we try harder to be more relaxed, but as we open our honest hearts to the one who is not worried about a thing."

How Can We Let Go of Stress and Find Rest in God's Presence? |
In a busy, anxious world, peace is hard to come by. Our lives can seem endlessly overwhelming. In Relaxed, Megan Fate Marshman gives us the word we all need. Instead of trying to figure it all out, we can cultivate a relaxed, intimate, slower life with God. Jesus was never in a hurry to be anywhere other than right where he was, and we're invited to practice the same presence. |
As Megan takes us word by word through Proverbs 3:5-6, she helps us discover: - The joy of a continual, intimate relationship with God
- What God calls us to do with the burden of shame and guilt
- What it looks like to be relaxed in the midst of grief, financial stress, mistakes, and fatigue
- The freedom and forgiveness of being found "in Christ"
- How to incorporate rhythms of walking with God into our everyday routines
As you lean away from your own understanding and into a relaxed spiritual life, you can open your heart and walk with the one who knows what He's doing-- and isn't worried about a thing. |

"Relaxed is a tender, vulnerable book from a woman surprised by one of life's most painful losses, yet it is not a grief book. Megan Fate Marshman's husband, Randy, died unexpectedly in 2021, and the book is infused with Randy's wisdom, personality, walk with God, love for Megan and their boys, strength, and character, yet it is not about Randy either. This is a book about learning to fully trust God with everything we have and are, and how to relax into all of the moments of the life God gives us.
-- Kay Warren, cofounder, Saddleback Church |
"This book is a gentle reminder from a trusted friend to take a deep and courageous breath when the wind has been knocked out of you, get your feet reset, and lean back into the strong arms of Jesus.
-- Bob Goff, author, Love Does |
