About two years ago, I decided to start making notes on the books I was reading and share those notes with my Congregational Council. We called it the “Council Toolbox”. Each month, I would share something with them that I had encountered in my reading. We found the discussion to be a helpful resource for our ministry together and for our lives of faith. They encouraged me to find a way to share these observations and learnings with the congregation. Hopefully, this blog will be a place to share ideas about faith and ministry in the world.
