In this workshop from the Rooted 2022 Conference, Liz Edrington talks breath, bodies, and being in process. Starting with the understanding that some anxiety is a very normal part of being human, Liz explores common questions that youth pastors and parents have about the anxious teenagers in their care. A trained counselor, Liz is the Fellowship Groups & Young Adults Director at North Shore Fellowship in Chattanooga, TN."We need to teach explicitly on relationships and friendships. Give students relational risk that is tolerable, so they can increase that risk.

Today we finish our great interview with Dr. Kelly Kapic, professor of theological studies at Covenant College in Lookout Mountain, Georgia. His book, "You're Only Human: How Your Limits Reflect God's Design and Why That's Good News" is a breath of fresh air for Christian parents who constantly struggle with their own limitations as parents. In this second part, Kelly talks about how personal limitations reflects the human need for support from others. Should we be careful about "co-dependency" and other toxic relationships? What does humility really mean from a Christian perspective? These and other things get thrown around in Dr. Ken and Kelly's discussion. This is part two of two episodes.

“Our creativity is better with seasons of rest,” says Kelly Kapic, author of You're Only Human: How your limits reflect God's Design and Why That's Good News and today's guest on Working with Dan Doriani. Rest is a reflection of our limitations, and limitations are more broadly a sign of our humanness. God made us finite, with boundaries to what we can accomplish. Our creatureliness, our dependency, and our finitude lead us toward humility, or at least it ought to. Dan and Kelly work through all the implications of being human in this illuminating conversation.

We all have limits. Might those limits be a good thing? Dr. Kelly Kapic joins Ken Keathley and Jordan Steffaniak to talk about his book, “You're Only Human: How Your Limits Reflect God's Design, and Why That's Good News.” They discuss why it's good to spend eternity in a body, the importance of touch, our misunderstanding of humility, and more. (The conversation starts at 7:00.) Also, in “Headlines” (1:04) Gabe Magan talks to Nathaniel Williams about the growing problem of sports gambling. And in “On My Bookshelf” (32:40) Dr. Quinn recommends Eugene Peterson's classic book, “Christ Plays in Ten Thousand Places.” Visit our website: https://cfc.sebts.edu/ Support the work of the Center: https://cfc.sebts.edu/about/give/
We live in a world where limits are seen as curses, but maybe good limits are God-given gifts. Only God is all-powerful, all-knowing, and everywhere. It's good news that I don't have to try to be any of these things because I simply can't. Today's Unhurried Living Podcast episode is an interview with Kelly Kapic, author of "You're Only Human: How Your Limits Reflect God's Design and Why That's Good News." I love how Kelly and I are able to talk about and share the intersection of his message on limitations the Unhurried Living message of unhurry. Kelly M.

Kelly M. Kapic (PhD) is professor of theological studies at Covenant College. In this episode, Josh interviews Kelly about You're Only Human: How Your Limits Reflect God's Design and Why That's Good News. Rather than sharing better time-management tips to squeeze more hours out of the day, Kelly Kapic 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.

In this episode we talk about limits with Dr. Kelly Kapic, who is Professor of Theological Studies at Covenant College (in Lookout Mountain, Georgia), and the author of You're Only Human: How Our Limits Reflect God's Design and Why That's Good News (published by Brazos). Over the course of our conversation, Dr. Kapic talks about the importance of human limitation and how it should be considered from within a theology of creation. In particular, he highlights that we should not feel guilty for our lack of productivity at the end of the day, but neither should we give in to a one-sided emphasis on how our identity is unrelated to the work that we do or the bodies that we have. We want to avoid a hyper self-reliance on the one hand, and Gnosticism on the other. This conversation helpfully sets up the series that we have planned next on Disability and Theology. Team members on the episode from The Two Cities include: Stephanie Kate Judd, Dr. Madison Pierce, Rev. Dr. Chris Porter, and Dr. Sydney Tooth.

Why is it that as human beings we so often see our limits as the enemy of the good life, and not as a helpful frame? Whether we're chafing against 24-hour days, the betrayals of our bodies, our inevitable mortality, or the caps on our relational and psychological energy, it just seems like modern life tempts us to believe that finitude is a weakness to be overcome … perhaps even a sin. But what if that's entirely wrong? Kelly Kapic is a theologian and the author of You're Only Human: How Your Limits Reflect God's Design and Why That's Good News. He joins Anne today to gently correct (and even heal!) the disorder of our weary self-flagellation.
This week's episode is inspired by a tweet from our friend, Darren Spyksma that has us thinking about things that are “uncomfortable truths” about education today…and things that we think really need to change about the way we do school. Through the conversation, we come to the idea that teachers and school leaders need to develop an imagination for what could be rather than just focusing on what is. If you are on Twitter, you should really follow Darren Spyksma! You will find him inspiring and encouraging…and challenging for developing your teacher imagination. You can find him at @DSpyksma. In this episode we referenced Kelly Kapic's excellent book, You're Only Human: How Your Limits Reflect God's Design and Why That's Good News.

Episode Notes “Gift” and “good” aren't words that usually come to mind when we think about our limitations. Dr. Kelly M. Kapic, author of You're Only Human: How Your Limits Reflect God's Design and Why That's Good News, thinks this reveals a serious theological problem, writing that denying our finitude “distorts our view of God and what Christian spirituality should look like.” In this episode he joins Dr. Keith Plummer to explain how.

In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Kelly Kapic. Dr. Kapic is the author of You're Only Human: How Your Limits Reflect God's Design and Why That's Good News. We talk about how often our thinking about productivity does not take our finitude into account, how love is one of the most inefficient things you can do, and why our expectations for what we can get done in a day are so out of whack. Quotes “I'm not here denying the reality of sin, but I am here deeply concerned that we have misunderstood what it means to be a creature.” “God is calling us to be human, not superhuman. The Christian life is not superhuman life. It's just human life.” “Probably one of the most inefficient things you can ever do is love. Anything that you love requires your time, your attention, and your energy, and it makes demands on you. And so when productivity and efficiency become our highest value, often what's happening is we're trying to gain control of our environments. And the way you do that is by putting anything that will make demands on you at a distance. And that makes love hard, if not impossible.” “Part of the goodness of creation is we were made to be dependent on God, on our neighbor, and on the earth. That is not a result of sin. Dependence isn't a result of sin. Sin just distorts those dependencies.” Links Get Dr. Kapic's book You're Only Human Learn More about Redeeming Productivity Academy Support the Show.

In his new book, You're Only Human: How Your Limits Reflect God's Design and Why That's Good News ,Kelly Kapic aims to lift from our shoulders the sense that we carry the weight of the world.Kapic, a professor of theological studies at Covenant College in Lookout Mountain, Georgia, situates theological truth in contrast with cultural expectations. He writes, “What an irony that our modern age, on the one hand, exhausts us by its calls for complete self-expression and, on the other hand, suffocates us by its pressures to conform.”Kelly Kapic joins Collin Hansen on Gospelbound to discuss the good news of human limits, living in the moment, the fear of the Lord, and our identity in Christ.
Welcome to episode fifty of New Creation Conversations. In this final episode of this first year and season of this podcast, I'm delighted to be joined by Dr. Kelly Kapic. Kelly is Professor of Theological Studies at Covenant College in Lookout Mountain, Georgia where he has taught for over twenty years. Dr. Kapic is an alum of Wheaton College. He has an MDiv from Reformed Theological Seminary and a PhD in Systematic and Historical Theology from King's College at the University of London. Kelly's passion is connecting theology to everyday life. He has written several books including, Embodied Hope: A Theological Meditation on Pain and Suffering, Overcoming Sin and Temptation, A Little Book for New Theologians: Why and How to Study Theology, and Becoming Whole: Why the Opposite of Poverty isn't the American Dream.Our conversation centers around his new and incredibly helpful book, You're Only Human: How Your Limits Reflect God's Design and Why That's Good News – published by Brazos Press. In this book Kelly celebrates the fact that God doesn't need us to meet all the needs, know all the answers, or be superhuman. Our limitations as humans are not a curse but a gift from God and should be embraced with gratitude. I thorough enjoyed the book and my soul deeply needed it in this moment. I resonate deeply with so many of the theological insights in this book and I am excited that I get to share this rich conversation with you.
We humans have a complicated relationship with our limits. We constantly push them; expand them; try to circumvent them. But limits are inherent to Creation. Why would God, who could have made the world in an instant, use a process instead? And what does this mean for our own process of sanctification, which we often want to be instantaneous? Matt, Derek, and Alastair jump into these questions with Dr. Kelly Kapic, the author of You're Only Human: How Your Limits Reflect God's Design and Why That's Good News.
