If we want to follow Jesus, we will need to give up more than just sins. We will also need to give up everything that dulls our hearts for him. Every area of life calls for evaluation. Should we be doing one thing or something else? Career A or career B? Enough school or more school? Stop spending and start investing. Don’t settle for the good when you can go for the great. All sorts of books and workshops and apps stand ready to help us live from higher priorities. And this is important, especially for Christians. We live for the highest priority there is. We live for the eternal. Our everlasting priority bears on our media diets, our gaming, our careers, our parenting, and really every single decision of life.
