About this audiobook

Before you tear down a fence, learn why it was built. Chesterton's Fence is the discipline of understanding a system before you try to change it — in your family, your work, your church, and your own habits. Too many of us "fix" things we never understood and break what was holding life together. This book shows you how to ask the right questions before you act: What purpose does this serve? Who built it and why? What breaks if I remove it? You'll learn to tell the difference between a dead tradition and a load-bearing wall. Scripture honors this kind of wisdom — humility before action, respect for what came before you. Whether you're leading a team, raising a family, or rebuilding your own life, Chesterton's Fence will keep you from destroying the very thing you meant to save. Part of the Made Simple Framework by Kimani Upshur, M.Ed.
