Start using your time like Jesus did

We are surrounded by technologies that promise to make life easier and more efficient: Robotic vacuums clean while we doomscroll. Furnaces spare us from chopping wood so we can spend time "saved" at the gym. Technology keeps harvesting our time, but we never seem to have any left--and we've never felt busier.

The problem isn't our tech. It's how we relate to time itself.

In Between Hurry and Heaven, tech scholar and pastor A. Trevor Sutton urges us to exchange our time-saving devices for life-giving tools. This isn't a time-management manual or a guide to maximizing productivity. Instead, it's an invitation to relate to time the way Jesus did--as a sacred gift oriented around community, gratitude, love, belonging, and peace. Through stories and practical wisdom, readers will discover how to resist the tyranny of busyness, reclaim joy in work and leisure, and align their time with eternal purposes.

As new gadgets promise ever greater efficiency, Between Hurry and Heaven reminds us that what we need isn't to move faster, but to live deeper. Because the goal isn't to save time. It's to redeem it--so that every moment, task, and tool becomes part of a life attuned to what lasts.
