Become More Effective by Embracing Your Inability Many of us are
tired, stressed, and overworked. We think that following God will
bring peace, but instead find ourselves anxious. We expect a life
of joy, but end up feeling stressed, living under the heavy load of
new expectations. It's a spiritual and emotional rollercoaster. We
search for solutions using optimization techniques, attempting to
fit more and more into our already full days. We try to craft
efficiently maximized lives, but these methods always fail, not
because they are ill-intentioned, but because they do not go far
enough. They fail to understand how God made us--as people with
inherent limitations--and they fail to accept that as good. In The
Good News of Our Limits, professor and longtime ministry leader
Sean McGever reveals the wonderful news that we cannot do, be, or
know all of the things that others expect of us--and that we often
expect from ourselves. Nor should we. As it turns out, these
expectations are not God's expectations. The freeing truth is that
God created us with limitations, and he did it for a reason. God is
the only all-powerful, all-present, and all-knowing person, and we
are not. We can only know and do some things, and we can only be in
one place at a time. And that is enough. Accepting this truth frees
us to find greater peace and joy, and somewhat surprisingly,
greater effectiveness in life. The Good News of Our Limits helps
readers answer questions like: What are our God-given human limits?
How do I find peace when I can't control the circumstances,
tragedies, and difficulties that surround my life? How do I choose
what is best when my time, focus, and abilities are limited? How
many people can I realistically know personally? What can I do to
deepen key relationships when I feel relationally maxed-out? How do
I navigate all the information that comes my way each day? Through
personal stories and fascinating cultural insights, The Good News
of Our Limits calls readers to embrace the blessedness of their
limitations and adopt a few key practices to better balance their
lives. Biblical and practical, it points to a better way forward
for us all.
