Changes… transitions… release of the old to make room for God’s new thing

 

As leaders we are walking through a unique moment holding

all the dimensions of Jesus’ journey – from ordinary ministry through the cross and resurrection, transition and ascension, and an outpouring of God’s new life into the world.  What is my invitation to walk my path as a participation in Jesus’ journey? What intersections are there between his Seasons and mine today?
