On Sunday, May 28, 2023, at 5pm, Laura C. Andrews will teach a Sunday Night Theology lecture titled, “Come, All You Tired and Trying: God’s Invitation to the Over-Responsible”. In this lecture, she will discuss the disposition of being “over-responsible” and how we can avoid it. Although God has given us clear commands in scripture, it can still be hard to discern the line between faithful service and over-responsibility. Over-responsibility involves laboring under unrelenting pressure todo more with a nagging sense that we can never do enough. This may lead to a host of attending consequences including anxiety, burnout, or resentment toward others, including God. Her lecture will aim to show how much of scripture is actually devoted to helping us uncover and address this unsustainable disposition and teaching us instead to live as needy children, those who find relief and resilience in Jesus’ call to be His stewards.
Laura Andrews has a M.Div. in Counseling from Westminster Theological Seminary and a B.S. in Human Development and Family Studies from the University of Missouri. She currently works as a biblical counselor in Huntingdon Valley, PA.
