You need this book
Format: Hardcover
I didn't want to like this book, thinking it would be another how-to-have-the perfect-Christmas book. It's not that. I liked it so much I bought it for my friends. It's an exquisitely beautiful, thoughtful, joyful week by week story of preparation for the celebration of the Nativity. The author shares her own traditions, her recipes, book lists and song lists in a week-by-week format of suggestions that are easily adaptable to your own family situation. Perhaps most important, she shares her experience of deep grief in a season when joy is expected. No matter your life situation - single, married with little or big children, empty nester - Glad and Golden Hours can be like sitting with a friend for a few minutes a day, a friend who encourages you to take time for what's really important, to take joy where you find it, to maybe rethink what Advent and the Christmas season mean for you (and your family.) I ended up loving this book I didn't even want to like.

Excellent
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
Wonderful book that just got better as it went on, with the last three chapters being my favorites! In today's distracted, entertainment-tainted culture, it may seem impossible but is imperative for us to cultivate quiet in our lives. Most of us know this, yet we still shun such moments of hush even when a way shows itself open to us. As Sarah wrote, we hold our phones as a shield, protecting ourselves from "the chill nakedness of our discontent and shame, our fear and desire". In her insightful book, Sarah asks us, "Have you stood like a watchman on the walls of your heart through the witching hour of dusk when the horizons of productivity and familiarity give way to some vast realm just beyond your understanding, a realm that is both your terror and your deep desire?"
Yet, as Sarah so rightly points out, we do not only meet ourselves in that vast, spacious place of quiet; we meet God, "that great word speaking us back into life" and "the light burning at the back of our eyes so that we look upon the world in the brightness of his companionship".
Sarah's book is a treasure of her own personal stories and struggles, and the insights birthed from the living of them. One of my favorite chapters was the Wise Woman's Cottage, an excellent analogy for the gift of imagination, one of the gifts of quiet Sarah explores in her book's concluding chapters. The way she weaves the story of C. S. Lewis into her contemplations brought tears to my eyes.
Yet, the chapter that drew those tears out of my eyes was the following one in which Sarah shared a true story akin (at least in my mind) to that of Lucy's in Prince Caspian, a story that calls us to courage and obedience in heeding God's voice, even when the message comes only to us. "When I listen for God's voice, I find he doesn't just speak generally; he speaks particularly, to me. Quiet restores us to the wondrous autonomy of finding that God truly does come to speak to those who love him as Father and Friend. Of course, we listen, and that kind of listening can change the course of our lives...There is only one Voice whose words will always tell us true". Such wondrous words, though, can call on our courage to obey when those on the outside of God's inner promptings lack His perspective on the matter. Sarah's personal story in this chapter burned my eyes with sympathy and - when I read the encouragement she received -joy.
The last chapter of this potent book was one I would not have guessed to move me as it did. The reminder that quiet "offers the space in which we may give voice to" our anguish and wrestling "so that they do not destroy us" because, "in God's hands...our lament becomes the companion leading us to the source of our lost joy". Oh, how true. Oh, how beautiful: that quiet offers us the gift of lament, which is itself a grace as "it bears at heart the belief in the reality of joy" (a truth Sarah's sister, Joy Clarkson, explored in her insightful book Aggressively Happy, in which I was reminded that sadness speaks truth to us just as joy does; we are sad because of a loss we *should* be enjoying, something we were meant to have or experience, which will one day be redeemed). In offering our laments up to God, we can then hear his words of comfort, truth, hope and assurance just as Job did, but quiet is necessary for such a divine exchange to be experienced.

Must read for finding quiet in a chaotic world!
Format: Paperback
In Reclaiming Quiet, Sarah Clarkson invites readers on a profound journey into the heart of stillness, urging us to cultivate an interior world where we can truly listen for God’s voice. With lyrical prose and deep insight, Clarkson explores the significance of silence in our often chaotic lives, reminding us that it is in these quiet moments that we can hear the whispers of grace.
The book is rich with personal anecdotes, theological reflections, and practical guidance on how to create a sacred space for contemplation and rest. Clarkson eloquently argues that every Christian is called to nurture this interior world, making it a place of expectant silence where we can encounter God’s Word in our darkness and be renewed.
One of the most striking aspects of Clarkson's writing is her unwavering faith in the goodness of God, which she believes can outlast any trial we may face. Her words resonate with hope and encourage readers to seek rest in a divine presence that transcends the tumult of life.
Overall, Reclaiming Quiet is a beautifully crafted invitation to embrace stillness and reconnect with our spiritual selves. It’s a must-read for anyone looking to deepen their faith and find peace in the midst of a noisy world. Whether you're seasoned in your spiritual journey or just beginning to explore, this book will guide you toward a richer, more contemplative life. Highly recommended!

Beautiful, insightful, filled with wisdom and depth
Format: Paperback
This is, hands down, the most beautiful, meaningful book I have read this year. It is also already topping my list of favorite books of all time; it is so masterfully written. Sarah Clarkson is a gifted storyteller who writes with grace, wisdom, vulnerable insight, and the art of weaving into her work the tone of a kindred spirit. Her personal perspective on capturing the essence of quiet-- even in the midst of the pulls and noise of life-- is gleaned from years of study as well as personal hunger and pursuit. As someone in a busy, sometimes chaotic time of life, I have found myself craving a deeper peace and centered calm that has felt illusive and impossible. I have been so eager for Ms. Clarkson's book to be released, and it was absolutely worth waiting for. I keep returning to its pages to let the words soak in, like water to a weary soul. Her words are lyrical, almost musical to read, and each story she shares, or quote from a book or poem, is chosen carefully to speak perfectly to the topic of quiet. I know this will be a book to read over and over again, to continue to grasp the truth it holds-- always pointing back to the true Master of our peace-- Christ.
