POWER OF HALF AN HOUR

BY CHARLES SURGEON

ABOUT THE EBOOK

Turn your fleeting minutes into defining moments.

What can you do in 30 minutes? Have lunch? Watch television? Check Facebook?
 How about change your life?
 Why do some people achieve far more than others? We all get the same 24 hours in a day, yet a special few seem to have superhuman abilities when it comes to accomplishing great things in life.
 Tommy Barnett, a proven master at "getting things done," says the key to maximizing your productivity is to make use of small, manageable moments in your day—just 30 minutes at a time.  In this remarkably practical book, Tommy shows how to begin a whole new life of fruitfulness. You’ll see immediate results in all areas of your life, including your—

·         Purpose and values
·         Personal goals
·         Faith
·         Character and attitude
·         Dreams
·         Career
·         Relationships
·         Marriage and family
·         Church involvement and ministry

Why not change time from being your worst enemy to your everlasting friend? It all starts with the amazing things you can do in only a half hour.  Through inspiring stories and biblical principles, discover how your downtime can have a major upside.

Get going—you don’t have a minute to lose!

Why a half hour? Mr. Barnett states that while reading the Bible he was intrigued to discover that there was only one reference to time as we know it. Revelations 8:1 states "when the Lamb opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour." "Many people think of a half hour as a minimal or meaningless gap in time, downtime to catch your breath between periods of major effort." As a minister, his perspective concerning time is expressed with a pressing sense of urgency. To help guide or "shepherd" others into the kingdom of God. As he puts it "thirty minutes can wreck or redeem a life, determine the difference between success and failure; while directing and shaping your future." It's all in the decisions that you make.

Without being preached to you are being asked to think and act decisively; about how, who and when you spend your time. At the end of the book you will find an action plan, a devotional, a small group study guide and other support materials. They are all designed to help you (individually or in a small group setting) delve deeper into the daily reading assignments.
•Discern HOW you spend your time - You need balance in your life. Make time to pursue the things that matter to you. "For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also." (Matt. 6:21). Be intentional!
•Discern WHO you spend your time with - There are some people you just don't need to be around. These human vampires suck the very life out of you with their constant negativity and then move on to their next victim. Choose people who can make a difference in your life and vice versa.
•Discern WHEN you choose to insert something into your schedule - Everyone gets the same 24 hours each day. Make yours count! While scheduling your time remember to be open and flexible to the unforeseen opportunities. This concept is a time management tool to help you become the best you can become in the future.

I would recommend this e-book to everyone!!!!!!!

 May the Lord continue to use you for His Glory. In Jesus Name Amen
