A Million Little Ways
A Million Little Ways: Uncover the Art You Were Made to Live | Emily P. Freeman
4 posts | 4 read | 1 reading | 3 to read
The majority of us would not necessarily define ourselves as artists. We're parents, students, businesspeople, friends. We're working hard, trying to make ends meet, and often longing for a little more--more time, more love, more security, more of a sense that there is more out there. The truth? We need not look around so much. God is within us and he wants to shine through us in a million little ways. A Million Little Ways uncovers the creative, personal imprint of God on every individual. It invites the discouraged parent, the bored Christian, the exhausted executive to look at their lives differently by approaching their critics, their jobs, and the kids around their table the same way an artist approaches the canvas--with wonder, bravery, and hope. In her gentle, compelling style, Emily Freeman encourages readers to turn down the volume on their inner critic and move into the world with the courage to be who they most deeply are. She invites regular people to see the artistic potential in words, gestures, attitudes, and relationships. Readers will discover the art in a quiet word, a hot dinner, a made bed, a grace-filled glance, and a million other ways of showing God to the world through the simple human acts of listening, waiting, creating, and showing up.

Fantastic writing. Hits so close to home. There's room for all of us to write. And write something amazing. Such beautiful writing. Her voice is down-to-earth yet eloquent and all-knowing, like a teacher: I'm in awe. Thumbs up!👍

This book was a game changer for me. It's so easy for me as a writer to stress over sales and marketing, or listen too much to the opinion of others. When I do so, I lose focus of what's most important - my love of writing. Of art. "...and no one wants my loveless art." I love Emily's books. I'll read anything she writes. #greatread

To be honest, not everything about this little book on creativity and how it shows God in our lives resonated with me. I'm not sure if it was the writing style or what, exactly. But there were also moments that really spoke to me and were very beautiful. So despite the fact that I didn't absolutely adore it, I feel like it was a valuable use of time and that I learned from it.
