Ministry leaders are always inundated with things to do, emails to respond to and meetings to attend. We can feel overwhelmed with everything we have to do and those seem to be the days more and more distractions come our way. This week, Matt and Chris share about the concept of Deep Work they've been reading about and apply the lessons from the book to help us accomplish the big things we need to get done.

“Burnout sometimes happens when people get overwhelmed but getting overwhelmed sometimes happens when we don’t schedule deep work.” Chris Bartlett.
