Let's face it, we are addicted to busyness and productivity, to achievement and accomplishment. So much so, that one of God's most basic gifts to humanity is often forsaken and even viewed with disdain.

May this resource help you encourage your community to rediscover God's good design behind the fourth commandment and ignite a fresh determination to allow God's Word to organize our priorities and how we order our days.
