Ive often prayed that God would give me direction on how to manage my time better. I never had enough paper for my to-do list. I tried waking up earlier, going to bed later, saying no, selling things, but none of that gave me the freedom I was looking for. After reading Redeeming Your Time, I learned that the perfecter of time management is Jesus Christ. He modeled what we can do in our everyday lives to glorify God while serving our spouses, kids, career, and communities. I am now equipped with biblical principles and proven strategies to help me redeem my time. I loved the book and I am sure you will too!
