#55 The Tyranny of Good Things

from Purpose and Perseverance Podcast · host Deacon Brad Watkins

Summer is supposed to be the season when life slows down (at least for people working in schools). So why does it often feel busier than ever? In this episode, I reflect on the challenge of juggling work, family, faith, health, and countless good responsibilities while discovering an important truth: the greatest struggle of adulthood is often not choosing between good and bad, but between many good things. Sometimes the path to a meaningful life is not doing everything - it is faithfully doing the next right thing.
