Hi, I'm Susie Larson.

Here's the podcast from Middays with Susie Larson.

Enjoy the conversation.

It's only just a matter of.

It's only just a matter of.

It's what the matter of heart.

Welcome. Welcome, welcome to Mid-Days.

I'm Sizzy Larson, so honored to get to spend this time with you.

In fact, I look forward to bringing you conversations every single day that hopefully inspire you in your faith walk,

the deep in your understanding of God's Word, and that heightens your awareness of his very real presence in your life. Here's a question for you. Have you ever been

so exhausted that you feel wired and tired at the same time? You're numb, but sometimes you get so

numb that you actually stop caring about what matters to you. You care about it, but you don't

feel like you can do anything about it. Well, that's a pretty scary place to be. But Jesus has a remedy not only to recover you from hurry sickness, but to

reestablish you in a better way of life, a sustainable way of life. That is one of my passions over

the years after hitting a burnout about 18 years ago, just putting really strong boundaries in

place, you know, respecting your limits and then appealing to a God who has no limits.

That's where we flourish.

To me, that is the abiding life.

That's why I'm so excited about today's conversation.

John Mark Hummer joins me today to talk about his insightful book, The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry.

I don't feel like there's a wasted word in this book, and he's funny, for one thing,

but just so much insight.
