Synopses & Reviews
Cut through the noise. Live in clarity. Hear the quiet whisper of God.One word could define this world: noisy. In our busy, connected society we are plugged into constant sources of noise. The barrage of sound, schedules, and social media steals our peace and our relation-building time with God and family.
During His time here on earth Jesus Christ was a master of noise. He was the Static Jedi. He balanced time healing, teaching, and feeding the multitudes with regular periods when He was alone to commune with His Father. The Son of God is our example of balance. By communing with His Father, Christ knew when to be at a place and when to move to the next. He was still and alone with God to hear His voice. What can we learn from Jesus, and how can we implement those practices into our lives? What did Jesus ask His followers to do so that we to can be Static Masters?
Static Jedi helps readers master the noise and distractions and live in clarity by following the examples that Jesus gave us.

Review
"Despite its offbeat title, Timms book prescribes straightforward applications of classic spiritual disciplines for a new generation and deserves attention for its punchy prose and use of intentionally choppy syntax to jar the reader as he accurately diagnoses humanitys addiction to noise, distraction, and static. The author dares the average Christian to instead master the noise, seek clarity, follow Jesus, and become a static Jedi.” With a no-nonsense approach, highly relevant cultural references, and personal anecdotes and illustrations, the book advocates morning devotion, solitary retreat, Scripture memorization, fasting, and ongoing discipleship to help readers master the static” like Jesus did. The injunctions are practical but challenging, motivational and mystical, and at times go beyond stimulating to being onerous. Timm asks readers to do the natural” as Jesus does the super,” but much of the book is focused on the actions of the devotee, not the Deity. Those looking to mirror Jesus spiritual discipline and to find clarity in the clamor of the modern world have a good resource in Timms book." Publishers Weekly (Sept.)
