Boots That Fit ebook

Description

How to serve God and your community in a way that suits your unique gifts and personality.
Are you tired of living a life that doesn’t fit? 
Find your place and serve others in a way that is truly yours.
Without a clear sense of identity, we find ourselves squeezed into jobs and activities that are not right for us. Our days are filled to the brim with things others want us to do, things we feel we should do, and things that just happen across our paths. We are bored, busy, strung out and just plain weary.
As you journey through Boots That Fit, you will learn to use your unique gifts and callings to serve God and your community in ways that suit your personality, your values and your life situation. Ruth Amos gives practical advice that helps you say no to the activities that are not yours, and to organise your life so that you can make the time and have the energy for pursuits that bring you joy. 
Author of My Year of Saying No, and creator of A Quiet Life, her blog and podcast, Ruth Amos has spent the last five years helping others simplify their lives and live more peacefully and with more purpose. Her wisdom has been appreciated by people aged 20 and 80 and everyone in between.

There is so much to like about Ruth Amos’ Boots that Fit. Not only is it friendly, easy to read and comprehensive in its scope, it is also so very practical. The activity section at the end of each chapter is a gold mine. Leadership books come and go, but this one is clearly worthy of recommendation. Rev Peter Adlem.

“I was looking for a self-development course that was light commitment, but had tools I could use straight away – I struck gold with Boots that Fit!
The balance of reflective practice, theological insight, practical tools, and engaging stories made the weekly gatherings enriching in so many ways.
I had a lot of fun during this course and walked away feeling better balanced. Boots that Fit even helped me move into a new career – thanks Ruth! ”

“Ruth Amos’ Boots That Fit course was a delightful and very important experience. Ruth’s warm, insightful leadership and facilitation was engaging, and the course content excellent. I found the course immensely helpful; Godly, thought provoking, practical, supported and thoughtfully designed for personal growth.
 I came away with so much to consider and find myself frequently going back to the material and integrating ideas from the lessons into my life.
 Boots That Fit gave me the structure and encouragement to think through, and the courage to enact some bold and very important changes, which have quite literally and in the best sense, changed the course of my future.”
