About More of God
Most of us long to experience more of God in our daily lives, yet we’re too distracted by a busy schedule, our own anxious thoughts, and even social media to hear His voice. We can’t slow down long enough to receive what God wants to give us.

- Ways to conquer distraction and grow our prayer lives
- Simple solutions to help us hear God’s voice as we read Scripture
- Creative ideas for making quiet time a delight instead of a duty

“Betsy de Cruz helps distracted girls like me discover do-able strategies for Bible study. I loved the hands-on ideas to help me move from “dullsville” to “delight” by spending just 5 to 15 minutes a day in the Word. I will be taking a personal mini-retreat soon with my colored pencils and new prayer journal to create my prayer map. This book is a treasure, and I plan on sharing its practical wisdom with all my girlfriends.”

The practical, down-to-earth tips Betsy shares are perfect for both new believers as well as more experienced Christ followers. I’ve come away with several new ideas I can’t wait to implement!

“Though Betsy de Cruz and I have never met or lived in the same city, we are sisters in the same spiritual sorority. As a kid she wanted to be a nun; I wanted to be a monk. As adults we both hunger for quiet time and a closer relationship with God. But family-life, lengthy to-do lists, and short attention spans continue to vie for center stage. In her confessional, humorous, and wise book More of God: A Distracted Woman’s Guide to More Meaningful Quiet Times, Betsy offers distracted soul sisters practical and accessible ways to return God to the center of our lives.

“I was hooked from the first page of the introduction as if Betsy had a view into my own daily struggles to stay focused and keep prayer a priority each day. I write and teach about prayer, yet I, too, get distracted from prayer – regularly!
