As already stated, I think the main culprits for lack of time/busyness/overwhelm is mostly phone addiction and trying to live up to certain expectations. So why don’t I just – you know – put my phone down more, and do less stuff? Well, I’m going to go back to something that more than one person… Continue reading Redeeming the Time: Conclusion

Redeeming the Time Part 5: Phone Addiction
And then there are our phones. Oh, our phones. Those blessed, cursed, brilliant, soul-sucking devices.

It was a week-long of chapels, seminars, prayer time, etc. There is one thing that sticks out in my mind from that time over 15 years ago. It is a seminar called Redeeming the Time. He spoke on how… Continue reading Redeeming the Time Part 1: Introduction
