Walk Humbly: Encouragements for Living, Working, and Being

De: Samuel Wells

Narrado por: Samuel Wells

Max Ehrmann’s prose poem “Desiderata”, with its direct instructions - "go placidly”, “enjoy your achievements”, and others - has inspired millions of listeners.

In the spirit of Ehrmann’s “Desiderata”, world-renowned ethicist, theologian, and preacher Samuel Wells offers eight encouragements to listeners in Walk Humbly, his own more extended prose poem. Each simple, direct exhortation - be humble, be grateful, be your own size, be gentle, be a person of praise, be faithful, be one body, be a blessing - is accompanied by thought-provoking, insightful comments.

Drawing on startlingly perceptive observations of contemporary life and reflecting a deep knowledge of philosophical and religious wisdom, Wells’ Walk Humbly will inspire listeners to stop, reflect, and think deeply about essential existence.

Insightful but Repetitive

Samuel Wells offers thoughtful reflections on humility, gratitude, gentleness, and community, drawing from theology and everyday life. The content is rich and often moving, but the style leans heavily on repetition, which can make it feel longer than necessary. A meaningful but sometimes dense read.

Worthwhile and enlightening

This small book is a lovely gift to anyone seeking to deepen his understanding of self and Creator

Cohesive and Thought Provoking

I love Sam Wells’ writing. He’s logical, orderly, deep, and practical. I also love when he narrates his own books because of his gentle and smooth speaking style. Audible, please have more Sam Wells narrates Sam Wells. :-)
