Work. Family. Church. Exercise. Sleep. The list of demands on our time seems to be never ending. It can leave you feeling a little guilty--like you should always be doing one more thing. Rather than sharing better time-management tips to squeeze more hours out of the day, Kelly Kapic takes a different approach in You're Only Human. He offers a better way to make peace with the fact that God didn't create us to do it all. Kapic explores the theology behind seeing our human limitations as a gift rather than a deficiency. He lays out a path to holistic living with healthy self-understanding, life-giving relationships, and meaningful contributions to the world. He frees us from confusing our limitations with sin and instead invites us to rest in the joy and relief of knowing that God can use our limitations to foster freedom, joy, growth, and community. Readers will emerge better equipped to cultivate a life that fosters gratitude, rest, and faithful service to God.

My husband and I are owners of a daycare center and while observing the children I noticed that often they would leave their meal on the table to scrounge for a crumb that they had lost under the table or around their chairs. After it was brought to their attention that the crumb was no longer good for consumption and after redirecting them to the more attractive spread before them, they had no problem finishing their tasty morsels. As Christians we often do the same thing, we leave our wonderful, abundant life or spiritual meal that is handsomely displayed before us to scrounge around for crumbs that are no longer appropriate for our spiritual consumption. I pray that this book will be a gateway through which we can grow past the crumbs and sit at the place Christ has prepared for us at His table. God has so much in store for us. Scripture states that He “...is able to do exceedingly, abundantly, above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,” (Ephesians 3:20). Just as He said in Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and hope.” (NLT)
