The Power of a Half Hour: Take Back Your Life

How did you spend the past half hour?

 

Whether you are looking to  strengthen your marriage,  build a healthy family or improve another area of your life, you can really make a difference with the next half hour of your life.  No, a mere 30 minutes won’t make you skinny or clear your backlog of undone tasks, but it will move you forward in what’s important.

The half hour method is perfect for those of us who feel like we don’t have any time to commit to anything, because there isn’t a big chunk of time available.  We only have a minute or two, so we jump on Facebook, which turns into a half hour or more.  See, we did have an half hour to invest into something bigger.   {I’m talking to myself here, but can you relate?}

 Some of the material in the book are things you and I already know we should be doing, such as investing in one-on-one time with God and with those in our home.   Yet, it is difficult to get out of the comfort zone (or bad habit of idleness) you and I find ourselves in.  Each of these undone, yet important, “should-do’s of life” become doable and an established part of our lives with the aid of the  short reading portions and half hour ‘personal action plans’ provided.

What is the half hour method?  It’s what I learned to apply in the book The Power of a Half Hour: Take Back Your Life in Thirty Minutes at a Time.  The seven parts to this ‘half hour’ book include:

• The Power of a Half Hour to Impact Your Life
• The Power of a Half Hour to Chart Your Life
• The Powyer of a Half Hour to Strengthen Your Faith
• The Power of a Half Hour to Build Your Character
• The Power of a Half Hour to Advance Your Dreams
• The Power of a Half Hour to Improve Your Relationships
• The Power of a Half Hour to Change the World

If you are a Christian – a husband, wife, parent, even a young adult starting out – ,you will find this book beneficial to your soul, your family and your everyday ‘existence’.     Time is something we all struggle with.  Let the power of a half hour work in our favor.

I received this book from BloggingforBooks in exchange for my honest review.

Praise for The Power of a Half Hour

“Before reading this book, I never thought of seeing 30 minutes as a power-packed opportunity to improve my life. Pastor Barnett’s half hour power principles have helped me strengthen my faith, become more productive, and connect with those I love with more intentionality. This book is as inspirational as it is practical, and I plan to use it as an integral part of my staff development program.”
