By: Tish Harrison Warren
How do we cultivate faith that endures? From the award-winning author and former New York Times writer comes a fresh vision for navigating burnout and weariness through ancient Christian practices—guiding us toward lives of resilience, renewal, and flourishing.
Early Christians often grappled with a reality we rarely talk about in contemporary life: that God seems to abandon the soul at times, leaving us feeling as if we are alone and left to our own resources. These are times of futility, when work and relationships feel hard, when prayer feels unsatisfying, and we question if our efforts are amounting to anything.
For centuries, Tish Harrison Warren notes, times of “aridity” were seen as necessary—prerequisites for growth and maturity. Yet in our culture fixated on speed and optimization, we risk losing this deeper sense of the human journey and the resilience that comes with it.
Writing for a moment when two-thirds of Americans are dissatisfied with their work and a sense of languishing is widespread, Warren draws from her own season of exhaustion and also from the rich well of Christian tradition--particularly the earliest Christian monks--to discover the habits and mindsets that anchor us through doubt, difficulty, and spiritual dryness. She offers hope to those who feel like life is overwhelming, taxing, or disorienting.
What Grows in Weary Lands speaks to anyone longing for a life of depth in a distracted age. Warren helps us see that nothing is wasted—that, even in desert seasons, something good is growing, rooted in grace and reaching toward glory.
