Restless Devotion: An Urgent Call to Godward Discontentment

by Nick Thompson

there is more of God to be had than you currently possess

Burdened over your lack of devotion? Unaware of God’s resources to overcome spiritual complacency? In Restless Devotion, Nick Thompson contends that God uses the book of Psalms to counter the satanic lullabies that lull us to sleep by forming and reforming the desires of our heart. Thompson considers seven choice psalms to show how these inspired songs are intended to awaken within us a restless hunger for God, His word, His salvation, His house, His restoration, His mission, and His vindication. Read and pray through these psalms with Pastor Thompson to learn the language, content, tone, and emotion of one who longs to delight in God.

[Steve]

Very much enjoyed this book. He examines several psalms and gives us a model for godly discontentment and seeking after God in his word for His glory and His salvation. He highlighted the sanctifying benefits of the means of grace and using fasting and prayer to draw closer to God and develop a hunger for him.
