The Most Important Focus in Organising your Life

While the start of the year produces the rush to buy calendars and reorganise our lives, we also need to take some time to focus on a more important aspect of our lives and our ministries. "We have schedule planners, computerized calendars and self-stick notes to help us organise our business and social lives every day, but what about organising the other side of our lives- the spiritual side? Tempted to give imbalanced attention to the public world at the expense of the private, we become involved in more programs, more meetings. Our massive responsibilities at home, work and church have resulted in a lot of good people on the verge of collapse. Gordon MacDonald's book Ordering YOur Private World equips a new generation to live life from the inside out, cultivating the inner victory necessary for public effectiveness."  Find it in our online store.
