About the Book

“I am a recovering workaholic, and I am writing this book to remind me of who I was. It has been written for me, but you are welcome to read it as well.”

So begins A Slow Walk, the story of a pastor who spent a lifetime working hard for God and nearly missed being with Him. Raised on a small North Carolina farm where busyness was a way of life, George Cline carried that pace into more than five decades of public ministry, until the Father's gentle whisper interrupted the hurry: Stop running. Just walk with Me.

This is not a book about doing more. It is about stillness, silence, solitude, and surrender - the unhurried practices that reorder a soul. Chapter by chapter, it trades the tyranny of the to-do list for the presence of a Father who has never once been in a hurry.

The Slow Walk doesn't free your schedule - it frees your soul.from Chapter 2

Twelve Discoveries

Discoveries the author made about the God he did not know - here are the first five.

  1. He's not mad at me.
  2. He is not disappointed in me.
  3. He loves me more than I love myself - which is saying a lot.
  4. He always has time for me, even though He has a universe to manage.
  5. He keeps my picture in His wallet.

The other seven are waiting inside the book.

About the Author

George W. Cline has spent a lifetime in public ministry as a pastor, missionary, and teacher. He spent eleven of those years as a radio DJ, which explains why this book keeps breaking into song. He and his wife, Nancy, married in 1965, five months after the Lord pointed her out to him in a college bookstore. Sixty years later, he still calls her the best thing that ever happened to him.

These days George practices what he preaches: he walks slowly, listens deeply, and stays close.

One more thing: having been a DJ down here, George has asked the Lord for the DJ job in heaven - playing heaven's music over heaven's loudspeaker for all the saints. He is sure the answer was “okay.” Song requests are being accepted while he is alive on planet Earth.
