Paused
Paused: The Pause That Refreshes is a timely and deeply pastoral book that invites readers to see seasons of stillness through the eyes of faith. Written from the lessons and spiritual reflections born during the global pause of 2020, Dr. Kenneth E. Angel explores how God can use interruption, uncertainty, and delay to renew the soul and awaken fresh purpose.
Rather than treating the pause as wasted time, Paused reveals it as a sacred opportunity to listen, reflect, repent, reset priorities, and rediscover the presence of God. With Scripture as its foundation, the book walks readers through the purpose, power, pain, promise, preparation, pivot, and planting that can happen when God slows us down long enough to get our attention.
For anyone who has ever felt delayed, disrupted, weary, or unsure of what comes next, Paused offers a hopeful reminder: the pause is not the end of the story. It may be the very place where God renews strength, refines faith, realigns priorities, and prepares His people for a new season of fruitfulness.
