Publisher's Summary

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.

Listeners will emerge better equipped to cultivate a life that fosters gratitude, rest, and faithful service to God.

Being finite is a good thing!

There have been various attempts at a modern anthropology. What does it mean to be human? This book is a celebration not of our intelligence, biological complexity, or creative brilliance, but rather, our finitude.

I recommended this book to a friend and he said it sounded like it was just going to be one main point repeated again and again. Sure, we have limits. Don’t overdo it. I get the point, he thought. But you really need to go through each page to get the nuance of how our finitude defines humility more than sin does, how being present and God’s presence relates to anxiety, why you don’t need to feel guilty when your pastor asks for volunteers in the nursery, why we might want to practice the holy kiss more often, and what Brene Brown actually gets right about empathy.

This book will be good for your soul. Especially if you’re someone who likes to accomplish things, or if you struggle with anxiety, or if you sometimes have self-doubt that gets in the way of your day-to-day, read this book.
