The LC can be a very intense environment. For those in the LC, that is often taken to mean something positive. They feel it indicates that they are serious about the Lord. And in some cases that may very well be the case. More often than not, however, things do get unbalanced.

One has to question why so much time must be devoted to LC activities - for traveling, conferences, trainings, retreats, "blending", etc, etc. What about family? What about the need for normal vacations? It all becomes questionable when it serves to prevent people from living a normal life.
