Proverbs 8:1-4
Thoughts to consider—
Backward [Roots]: What personal stories, Biblical narratives, or church traditions are being drawn to my mind in this Gathering?
Forward [Journey]: What is a practical next step I can take in my journey of following the way of Jesus?
Outward [Service]: Who or where might God be calling me to care about more deeply and tangibly?
