Do Nothing: The Simple Principles of Jesus to Accomplish Anything

by Jonathan Cottrell

Do Nothing  shares a strong message of how to accomplish something greater for Jesus. Most religions proudly and regularly teach what their followers must do to reap spiritual rewards and climb the peaks of enlightenment. But then, there’s Jesus. Rather than tell His followers what they could do, Christ taught believers that they could “do nothing” apart from Him (John 15:5). Likewise, the Son of God insisted that He could “do nothing” apart from His Father in heaven (John 5:19). Unfortunately, this is a message that has been largely forgotten among even the most well-intentioned Christians and trendiest of churches. Maybe it’s a message that readers have never even heard. In  Do Nothing , readers learn how to peacefully rest, better discern, and calmly walk forward in the completed work of Jesus. Finally, they can escape the burdensome mantras of today’s culture which indoctrinate everyone everywhere to work hard, hustle, earn it, make it happen, try harder, and do something. So much doing. Jesus offers a much easier way—in fact, He is the way. And He accomplishes everything He begins.

This book is really good for anyone like me who feels they always need to be doing something. Great reminder to rest in Christ and let him do the heavy lifting/continue on in the work He is already doing.

Apart from Him

We can do nothing.
Sit, wait, rest.
Find what God is doing, where He is going, and follow.
Simple but difficult for some.
