Summary
Habits form us more than we form them. The modern world is a machine of 1,000 invisible habits, forming us into anxious, busy, and depressed people. We yearn for the freedom and peace of the gospel but remain addicted to our technology, shackled by our screens, and exhausted by our routines. But because our habits are the water we swim in, they are almost invisible to us. What can we do about it?
The answer to our contemporary chaos is to practice a rule of life that aligns our habits to our beliefs. The Common Rule offers four daily and four weekly habits, designed to help us create new routines and transform frazzled days into lives of love for God and neighbor. Justin Earley provides concrete, doable practices, such as a daily hour of phoneless presence or a weekly conversation with a friend. These habits are “common” not only because they are ordinary, but also because they can be practiced in community. They have been lived out by people across all walks of life - businesspeople, professionals, parents, students, retirees - who have discovered new hope and purpose.
As you embark on these life-giving practices, you will find the freedom and rest for your soul that comes from aligning belief in Jesus with the practices of Jesus.

A great a book and honest author
i really enjoyed this book, I briefly saw the author on insta quoting something from his 2nd book. (planning to read next) this book covers some core fundamentals, I've read habit books before but I still found this inspiring and like the author was honest that he is only doing his best but sticks to these common rules majority of the time. For me it definitely highlighted areas of my life that need working on. hope this helps anyone else.

Insightful and honest story of struggle
I was pleasantly surprised to hear that some of the habits I have developed over the years to cope as well as bolster me are discussed here. I have found those habits life changing so I'm excited to adopt a few more I've gotten from this audiobook.

Honest , practical biblical application
Loved it!
Great listen for 4 to 5 hour car journey. The narrator reads beautifully! Would highly recommend. One rule which I will take forward is '1 hour without phone '.
