2026 Devotional Addresses Spiritual Exhaustion in Modern Faith Life

NEW YORK - Rezul -- As discussions around burnout, faith fatigue, and spiritual overload continue into 2026, author Karla R. Shumate releases As the Deer, a reflective devotional offering a quieter, more grounded response to modern spiritual exhaustion.

Rather than urging greater effort or intensified devotion, As the Deer invites readers to return to stillness, attentiveness, and trust. Rooted in Psalm 42, the book reframes spiritual thirst not as failure, but as a sign of continued life and longing.

"Rest is not disengagement," Shumate writes. "It is often the most honest form of faith."

The devotional explores themes increasingly relevant to faith communities today, including the effects of constant spiritual productivity, the role of waiting and silence in restoring clarity, and the difference between striving for God and resting in trust. Throughout the book, renewal is presented not as something to be achieved, but as something received.
