Opportunities vs Obligations: Find Balance and Breathe Week 2 of 4
from The Heidi St. John Podcast · host Heidi St. John
Opportunities. We all have them. Sell Tupperware. Start a ministry at church. Take a new part-time job. Take on a new hobby. Of course, none of these things are inherently wrong… in fact they look good! But even good things can rob us of the best things that God has for us. Listen in today as we talk about the importance of prioritizing your obligations over your opportunities, and the freedom that comes with it. This is week two of the January Bible study at MSI. Join us at MomStrong International.
