Winner of the 2014 Christian Book of the Year Award. I'M TOO BUSY!- We've all heard it. We've all said it. All too often, busyness gets the best of us. Just one look at our jam-packed schedules tells us how hard it can be to strike a well-reasoned balance between doing nothing and doing it all. That's why award- winning author and pastor Kevin DeYoung addresses the busyness problem head on in his newest book, Crazy Busy -- and not with the typical arsenal of time management tips, but rather with the biblical tools we need to get to the source of the issue and pull the problem out by the roots. Highly practical and super short, Crazy Busy will help you put an end to - busyness as usual.
