Crazy Enough To Try is a book written for those of us looking to incorporate our passions into our lives. Whether we find passion in our careers, our hobbies, our religion, or elsewhere, we're looking for something that calls to us, pulls us out of bed in the morning, and gets us excited for the day ahead. Discussions around passion are often filled with platitudes and quick one-liners like, "Follow your passion and you'll never work a day in your life," or advice like "Give up on your crazy dreams and find a real job." That's not this book. This book is about learning what passion really means to you, and how to realistically apply your passions in a way that works for you. In this second edition, Crazy Enough To Try goes even further than the original, adding an additional four interviews for a total of ten full-length interviews with extremely passionate people to answer four key questions: 1. What is passion to you? 2. What are you passionate about? 3. How did you get to where you are in your journey? 4. How could someone else figure out his or her own passions? These thought-provoking conversations are retold, each with radically different paths, each with ideas on what passion is, and how each person is incorporating passion into their life. From a twenty-something world traveler to a middle-aged executive, Crazy Enough To Try is filled with successes and failures from all walks of life. What readers are saying: "A must read if you are confused about what you want to do in life, or if you know what you want to do but are confused about how to proceed about it. You will not be disappointed." - Avery "I loved reading about people's journeys through life. It's always good to know you are not the only one searching." - Hershelle "Crazy Enough To Try won't solve all your life problems, but it will equip you with the tools to really find your passion and incorporate that passion into your life. This book really helped to give me a better sense of what I want to do with my life." - Rick Read Crazy Enough To Try to learn how those that are living a life of passion transformed themselves and how you can apply these strategies to your own life right now.

Winner of the 2014 Christian Book of the Year Award "I'M TOO BUSY!" We've all heard it. We've all said it. All too often, busyness gets the best of us. Just one look at our jam-packed schedules tells us how hard it can be to strike a well-reasoned balance between doing nothing and doing it all. That's why award-winning author and pastor Kevin DeYoung addresses the busyness problem head on in his newest book, Crazy Busy — and not with the typical arsenal of time management tips, but rather with the biblical tools we need to get to the source of the issue and pull the problem out by the roots. Highly practical and super short, Crazy Busy will help you put an end to "busyness as usual."
