Pastors Perspective: Busyness

Are you in the business of busy-ness? It’s an easy trap to fall into for a lot of us. Is there a healthy kind of busy in which we can engage? Would you be surprised if the answer is “yes?” Busyness is widespread these days, and as the culture becomes more segmented and the digital and tangible worlds become more enmeshed, we can busy ourselves with things that are really counter productive to our lives. Brian and Bryan springboard off of the ideas in Kevin DeYoung’s book Crazy Busy to discuss what types of things we can busy ourselves with, how we can engage in a healthy type of busyness in our lives, and what our priorities are as Christians. Our prayer is that this timely conversation is a big help to you—especially in the seasons of life where our schedules feel like they’re bursting at the seams!
