Crazy Busy by Kevin DeYoung 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 that we know how hard it can be to strike a well-reasoned balance between doing nothing and doing it all. That’s why 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 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 puts an end to “busyness as usual.” Dating, Sex, and Marriage Matthew Gould 5/3 Harrison Kemp 5/21 MK Hendricks 5/4 Garrison Carroll 5/24 Chris Smith 5/6 Faith Cisney 5/24 Krista Rowland 5/6 Will Fiser 5/26 Caitie Manuel 5/9 Kelsey Taylor 5/28 Tommy Dodd 5/13 J.P.

Smith Feel the futility of it. In the Old Testament, the priests of Israel were required to offer daily sacrifices to atone for sins. Hebrews points out that the fact these sacrifices had to be performed over and over for hundreds of years shows that they were ineffective in removing sin (Hebrews 10:1-2). Let the language of these tasks being “endless” and being required “year after year” make you tired. But when Jesus comes, acting as our high priest, he makes a sacrifice of his own life and body that pays the debt once and for all. “But when Christ had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God” (Hebrews 10:12). Jesus, unlike any other priest, completed his work and was able to sit down. Like his Father in Genesis 1, Jesus sits because his labor for us is perfect and complete. In other words, “It was very good.” Because Jesus rests, you can rest. Jesus’ death and resurrection embody the promises of Sabbath. His work is perfect; complete. He has redeemed us from our sin. By trusting him and obeying his words and his Spirit within us, we are no longer slaves to our corrupted nature. We are free to be God’s children. His resurrection is a picture and promise of the new life we have now and will have forever when Jesus returns and we are resurrected as well.
