Meet the Author

Hi, I’m Brian D. Mosley, a Pastoral Coach, Hospice Chaplain, and Founder of Wisdom Co. I’ve lived through the pressures of performance-driven Christianity—and I’ve also tasted the freedom of abiding in Jesus. This devotional flows from that journey.

It’s tender, Spirit-led, honest, and rooted in Scripture. My prayer is that it will help you trade pressure for peace, and striving for stillness—because that’s where real wisdom begins.

“Peace isn’t found in trying harder. It’s found in staying closer. Let these seven days walk you into that peace.”
