About this product

Product Information

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. Praise for You're Only Human Written with beauty and clarity, You're Only Human is a library of wisdom and virtue. This book isn't just about the limits of being human--it's a celebration of being human. --Karen Swallow Prior, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary; author of On Reading Well: Finding the Good Life through Great Books In this most necessary book, Kelly helps us understand and find relief in the truth that God is God and we are not. Especially for those who have forgotten this and grown tired, I can't recommend You're Only Human highly enough. --Scott Sauls, senior pastor, Christ Presbyterian Church; author of Jesus outside the Lines and A Gentle Answer A page turner! Just have a pen handy--there's a lot to underline in You're Only Human. --Michael Horton, Westminster Seminary California; author of Ordinary: Sustainable Faith in a Radical, Restless World This book is a hopeful gift. --John Swinton, University of Aberdeen Kapic offers us something compelling and refreshing. He graces us with a mature, winsome, theologically steady, and pastorally gentle invitation to receive with gratitude and rejoice once again in the triune God's good gift of finite creatureliness. --Leopoldo A. Sanchez M., Center for Hispanic Studies, Concordia Seminary As this book helped me to see the manifold ways in which we live in denial about the goodness of limits, I made fresh commitments to seek new, healthier habits. I cannot value and recommend a book more highly than that. --Daniel J. Treier, Wheaton College; author of Introducing Evangelical Theology In You're Only Human, Kapic once again shares from his own personal journey and at times confronts his own questions in order to reveal the beauty of God's intended rhythm for life in a world that is driven by deadlines, goals, and extremes. He asks hard and searching questions in order to reveal the beauty of God's created order and Christ's peace that passes all understanding. --Bishop Julian M. Dobbs, Anglican Diocese of the Living Word To receive our human limitations as a gift rather than a liability is indeed a great blessing! Kapic shows us why and how in this uplifting work. --Ruth Haley Barton, founder, Transforming Center; author of Sacred Rhythms: Arranging Our Lives for Spiritual Transformation I love this book. Kapic has given us biblical wisdom that is not only profoundly deep and rich but easily consumable and practical. With enthusiasm, I will recommend this book to all the pastors and ministry leaders I mentor. --Paul David Tripp, author of New Morning Mercies and Lead: 12 Gospel Principles for Leadership in the Church Reading this book is like taking that first breath of fresh air after being underwater for too long. Kapic makes a paradigm-shifting case regarding God's gift of finitude, or having limitations, that reveals the best of what our Creator God designed us to be. --Julius J. Kim, president, The Gospel Coalition No hastily pre
