The Saints Did Less - Why You Should Too

Unhurried Living | Helping Christians Rest Deeper & Lead Better

Show Notes

In this episode of the Unhurried Living Podcast, Alan Fadling reflects on four striking insights from Frederick Faber’s Spiritual Conferences, a classic work of Christian spiritual formation. These timeless passages speak directly into our modern struggle with busyness, pressure, and spiritual exhaustion.

Alan explores the surprising rhythm of the saints who “did few things,” the invitation to savor grace rather than rush past it, the deeper measure of our work in God’s eyes, and the way hurry can cloud our vision of God.

If you long for a more grounded, spacious, and unhurried life with God, this episode offers gentle guidance and a clear path forward.
