Imagine being stuck on a crazy merry-go-round that won't stop. You're spinning endlessly, unable to focus or catch your breath.

This is the reality for many children today, caught in the frantic pace of life. Forces beyond their control rush them along, moving so fast that there's little room for God in their thoughts or on their calendars. They're left struggling to establish roots in community, reliable morals, or any kind of relationship with God.

The good news is it's possible to help children experience life at a slower pace. You can push back against the demands of our superficial, artificial, automatic, and always-on culture. In Savoring Childhood, Grace Pouch offers small steps you can take to help children experience life at a pace where friendship with God has the time and space to flourish.

With this book, you'll learn how to

• resist the formation of spirit-harming habits and appetites,
• set a pace that supports freedom, connection, and depth, and
• nurture skills for healthy relationships with God and others.
