The Redeemed Man

The Four Rhythms of a Spiritually Meaningful Life with Tommy Brown

Paul Amos

“Love deeply. Live quietly. Mind your own affairs. Work with your hands.” These simple instructions from Paul’s first letter to the Thessalonians form the foundation of pastor Tommy Brown’s new book, The Speed of Soul. This week, Tommy talks with Redeemed director Nate Dewberry about what inspired the book and what he hopes men will find a vision for living “smaller” yet freer, a sense of greater fulfillment in ordinary work, and discovering what he calls “a better way of being human.”
