How to Stay on Track While Still Enjoying Your Summer
Most of us hit summer running on fumes. The first half of the year has a way of grinding you down. We feel this tension between needing to stay the course and also needing to chill out.As we come up on the halfway point of the year, it’s a great chance to take stock, rethink your goals, and make a light plan for the summer that is both restful and purposeful.In this workshop, we’ll put a special emphasis on what we call “Gift Goals.” These are the kinds of intentional efforts that are restful, enjoyable, and slow-paced—the perfect recipe for summer.You'll walk away from this workshop: - With a fresh sense of rest being a gift from the Lord, not a thing to feel guilty about- Knowing exactly which goals to keep, which to kick down the road, and which to drop altogether - And with inspiration and a plan for creating your own Gift Goals: low-pressure, soul-feeding pursuits that make summer feel like the gift God designed it to be—Want to go deeper?
