Family Faith

Melanie and I first and foremost wanted to thank the class for your expressions of love via cards, emails, meals, etc. They are all greatly appreciated and living measures of “being the church.” Thank you.

Thanks as always to Beth. It is such a relief to know that you are willing to step in and take the class. Thanks as always.

So for Chapter 4 I just wanted to get through the chapter and make sure we touched on a few things. I really appreciate the comments and thoughts. I’m sorry I missed last week. It is clear that there are lots of things that are vanishing in our society, but we have the opportunity to ensure that some carry on. I think as we experience life, we learn to understand those things that make it special. “Experiencing” God, relationships, pain, these are all things that require time, attention, emotion, etc. They also require a sense of “being” there.

Here are this week’s slides.

Along with a few videos poking fun at our current status of “being present” and consumerism with technology. Please read chapter 5 for next week.
