Six Basics of a Balanced Life: XXX (Designed for Influence Series)

What’s really important?
You were born to be a woman of influence. You were born to model your life on Jesus’ life, and in so doing, be a model for others. It may happen in a few quiet words over coffee, in a hug or a prayer. No matter how you do it, you have what it takes. God wants to influence people through you.

Use this study guide with a small group of women who share your desire to grow and give… or use it in your private time with God. Either way, it’s time to begin. Let’s get started…together.

Put an End to Your Juggling Act

In today’s busy world - ruled by day planners, e-mail, and cell phones - it’s difficult to get everything done. There just isn’t enough time in the day to complete all our tasks. So how can we know where to put our focus? How can we know what-if anything-we should drop…or add?

Not just another item on your to-do list, Six Basics of a Balanced Life will help you find answers to the key question, “What’s really important?” In this valuable, six-week study, you’ll find-perhaps surprisingly-that it’s not important to “do it all.” You’ll learn to relax and have fun as you make important decisions about the way you structure your life. And you’ll gain valuable input from the life of Jesus on how to put your life wonderfully in balance.
