Create a Gospel-Centered Rule of Life
Habits form us more than we form them. The modern world is a machine of invisible habits, forming us into anxious, busy people. We yearn for the freedom of the gospel but remain shackled by our screens and exhausted by our routines. How can we truly break free, find rest, and form a life that aligns our habits with our foundational beliefs?
According to Justin Earley, the answer is a rule of life. The Common Rule's four daily and four weekly habits transform frazzled days into lives of love for God and neighbor.
In The Common Rule, you'll find
- doable, life-giving practices to find freedom and rest for your soul,
- expanded content including study guide questions for individual reflection and group discussion, and
- practical, accessible resources for building habits that bring life.
Take the first step toward a life of intentionality and discover how simple, meaningful habits can transform your everyday moments into a rhythm of peace and purpose.
"Full of glimpses of the life we were made for, and the simple choices that can take us in that direction. The habits described here, and the wisdom they embody, are the path toward sanity in a frenetic world." - Andy Crouch, author of The Tech-Wise Family and Culture Making
"With his precise plan, Earley instructs Christians on how to create an environment for a healthy spiritual life." - Publishers Weekly Review, February 2023
