This Sunday, in Week Two of “Stretched Too Thin” we’ll consider the discipline of narrowing the focus. Usually we stretch ourselves too thin because we think our needs won’t be met otherwise. So we work more hours, sign our kids up for more extra-curricular opportunities, buy more things, and somewhere along the line, God gets relegated to the back burner or forgotten altogether. So “narrowing the focus” starts with “seeking the Kingdom” And we’ll see what Jesus meant by putting that first.
So the discipline is to resist the A.D.D. smorgasbord approach to life and work towards simplicity. It’s natural to get sucked into complexity. And this gravitational pull is usually subtle and almost never intentional. Simplicity means proactively and constantlyguarding against the pull of complexity, and getting tenacious about simply living simply. We can either do one or a few things very well, or we can do it all poorly or at best, in mediocrity.
There is soooooo much more to this, so please join us this Sunday morning at either of two services, 9:15 or 11:00.
