InFormation Session 2: January 2025
Our second session in January focused on the concept of relinquishment, and invited us to consider how we view our space and place in light of God's mission for the world. We also talked about the markers for knowing we're 'on track'.
We've compiled the recorded footage of Session 2 into a YouTube Playlist for you to re-engage with.
InFormation Session 1: September 2025
After a shared meal, we watched this video and spent time talking about the big ideas together ...
Around tables, we shared our thoughts and experiences around the following questions:
Interested in discussing this topic more? Scroll down for a Zoom opportunity to continue to the conversation...
We participated in a listening exercise (Lectio Divina) using a passage from Luke 10...
As you watch the video, participate in the practice. Make notes of your experience if you'd like.
We introduced a Community Practice to engage with throughout the next season...
Together we are reading Liturgy of the Ordinary by Tish Harrison Warren and processing/discussing in community. Some of you have decided to use this book with your small group and we think that’s awesome!
If you need more copies, you can find them for sale in a variety of places (Amazon, Indigo, Christian Books).
Audio versions are also available via Audible, and some local libraries.
We'll be communicating regularly over the next several months (until the next In Formation session on January 19!), touching base on this Community Practice, sharing stories and learnings, and passing on additional resources that might be engaging.
