Finding Balance When Life Gets Busy

We live in a culture that seems to glorify busyness. Between work responsibilities, family obligations, social commitments, and everyday tasks, it often feels like we're running a never-ending race. Unfortunately, this constant state of busyness can war against real relational connections – especially in our marriages.

Profile picture for user Dr. Paul Chappell
By Dr. Paul Chappell, Tuesday, January 5, 2010
It is always interesting to me when an author writes a book speaking about the lack of separation in the contemporary church. But I am specifically interested when the author primarily fellowships with those who are involved in the contemporary church movement.

Make Christ the Center of Your Life
As an elementary student, one of my favorite recess activities was to play on the merry-go-round. All the kids would grab one of the iron handles and run for all they were worth. Then, when the merry-go-round was traveling as fast as it could, we would all jump on. If you were sitting close to the outside, you would have to hold on with all your might, because it was easy to get thrown off.
