Healing…Fiction…Connectedness [Balm in Gilead / Summer Read…Quote…Reflect]

June 28, 2019 by Tom Grosh IV No Comments

With summer unfolding, I thought that it would be good to go the direction of Read…Quote…Reflect, beginning with a series on “Balm in Gilead: A Theological Dialogue with Marilynne Robinson” – an InterVarsity Press publication resulting from the 2018 Wheaton Theology Conference.

A Prayer for Summer Break

July 15, 2018 by Kenneth Litwak No Comments

O Lord, you have brought us through the spring term to the summer break. This is our chance to recover from stressful course work, teaching, and engaging with students, faculty, and staff involved in the tasks of the semester or quarter.

God’s Abundance: Prioritize a Few Strategic Things, Damage Control the Rest (Time Management Series)

December 8, 2017 by Heather Walker Peterson No Comments

As a department chair, I could pick up my kids at 4:45 p.m. each day, put them to bed at 8, and then neglect my husband while I spend the next 2 to 3 hours catching up on more chair duties or grading. Occasionally, I do do this, but I try to make it once a week and not the rule.

December 4, 2017 by Kevin Birth No Comments

Don’t manage your time; manage your priorities, and make one of the top priorities taking care of yourself.

Summer Snapshot: Reimagining Work

August 1, 2016 by Christine Jeske 2 Comments

This summer I have been focusing on reimagining work instead of escaping work. I started the summer completing one of the heaviest projects of my life, my dissertation. PhD in hand, I spent a good few weeks reflecting on how to “come out of the tunnel” after an intense academic year.
