The Secret Ingredient
We care for our souls when we make gratitude a regular habit and choose to give our attention to what really matters.
You can put that down.
You don’t have to carry your guilt and shame. You can put them down.
The Rest of the Story
As we consider the way that we care for our souls, we must come face-to-face with the truth that often the greatest thing lacking in soul care is that our souls are unrested.

What did you think would happen?
When I look at the church today, I don’t see us living with the same expectation. I think the church has become a box we check or something we do because we are “good people.”
A Peculiar Family
For us to be the church we are called to be. We must be people who see those on the margins and intentionally and sacrificially serve them.

The original recipe of the church is that we would be a people who live committed to gathering, committed to each other, and committed to growing.
The Through Line
… authentic love is the true through line for a healthy church. Christlike love is what ties all of these pieces together.
