About this book

We live in a fast-paced world, and our minds are working in overdrive. Mindfulness promises a method of tuning out the voices for a few minutes to live in the moment. Biblical meditation offers something better: an opportunity to be transformed by God's voice of truth.

Psalm 1 says that the person who delights in God’s word and meditates on it day and night is like a “tree planted by streams of water”. Linda Allcock gives us a framework to help us slow down and dwell deeply on God’s word so that it clears our minds and fills our hearts, making a real difference to the way we live.

Endorsements

All of us could do with slowing down. That’s true for life in general and for our time in God’s word in particular. We all want to make progress with Jesus, of course, but paradoxically it is by going slower with his word that we will make the fastest progress with him. Linda’s book is a searching and timely call to meditate on God’s word, explaining clearly and carefully what that means and offering up a practical framework to do it well. She is honest about the struggles of finding time for the Scriptures but ambitious about the delight we can discover there. Don’t rush past this one.

Engagingly written and inspiringly simple, Deeper Still is a wonderfully clear and practical guide to engaging more fully with God through his word.

Clare Heath-Whyte Author and speaker

Deeper Still is a wonderfully encouraging, terrifically insightful and stunningly simple book. It is written to help us to find eternally satisfying nourishment through our daily encounter with the Lord in his word. As well as offering a simple framework to the reader to follow in achieving this goal, it is also honest, realistic and frank about the challenges there are. Deeper Still is also a brilliantly written and at times profoundly personal book. No matter where you are along your Christian journey, this book will be more than worth your time.

5.00 stars Made me want to read my bible more

 

This is a super little book that has left me wanting to read my bible more. I received it as a present and initially I wasn't sure about it because I don't see myself as someone who meditates. However as I read it, I realised that meditating on God's word is essential for spiritual growth. Linda writes in an accessible and encouraging way. I have since bought the book for everyone in my church small group and want to come back to it again myself.
It was also interesting to think about how biblical meditation is different to mindfulness but ...

5.00 stars Beautifully researched & Written

 

(Review written for 'Deeper Still (ebook)')

This book swells with the author's research and personal exploration of what it is to meditate on scripture. But it is not a heavy read. Linda writes deep truths with an engaging and light touch, her gentle wit weaving through the pages. Nor is it just a book to inform, as it regularly invites us to pause and respond to suggestions on how we can put into practice what we've been learning. Highly recommended.

5.00 stars Highly valuable teaching

 

Once I started this book I was unable to put it down! It goes right to heart of why reading and meditating on God's word is so important and led me to consider and challenge all the excuses I make for not doing this regularly. Having addressed this, the book then goes on to give helpful, practical ways to meditate on Scripture, to focus on the truths of the Bible and to quieten/challenge all the voices in today's culture.
I would highly recommend to anyone who feels they have lost their way with regards to spending time in God's word ...
