About this listen
Manage your time the way Jesus managed his with a biblical antidote to swamped to-do lists and hurried schedules.
Despite the overwhelming amount of resources for time management and work-life balance, the ability to cultivate the efficiency and equilibrium needed to manage all our worthy pursuits can often feel frustratingly out of reach. The reason for our struggle is that productivity and time-management systems focus on individual habits rather than more meaningful and lasting lifestyle changes. But as it turns out, there is a better way to reach our full potential.
We don’t need just another approach to changing our habits. What we need is an operating system that takes into account the full scope of our lives. In this audiobook, best-selling author Jordan Raynor presents this system, using seven powerful time-management principles drawn from the example of how Jesus lived:
- Start with the word: Find meaningful connection with the author of time daily.
- Let your yes be yes: Accept only the commitments you can fulfill.
- Dissent from the Kingdom of Noise: Create room for silence, stillness, and reflection.
- Prioritize your yeses: Confidently maintain your commitments.
- Accept your “unipresence”: Focus on one important thing at a time.
- Embrace productive rest: Live the God-designed rhythms of rest which are productive for our goals and souls.
- Eliminate all hurry: Embrace productive busyness while ruthlessly eliminating hurry from our lives.
With these principles, you’ll see how Jesus managed his time on Earth and how he responded to human constraints much like the ones you face today. More than that, you’ll discover corresponding practices that will help you embrace the best, most Christlike version of yourself possible: purposeful, present, and wildly productive.

Story
Etiquette, Sara Jane says, is the glue that holds society together. Humans are social creatures, after all—we need connection to survive. But with global cultures in flux and the post-pandemic digital age, shadow epidemics of anxiety and loneliness are on the rise. Plus, the old rules of “decorum” don’t match the times. Amidst all this withdrawal and change, social growth can feel out of reach. How do we leave the comfort of our homes, step away from our screens, and interact face to face?
