The month of June is dedicated to discerning God’s Will (a life long task we know!) in our own lives and for the future of The Practice. For those who are interested, our leadership team has been reading through the following resource to help equip and give shape to the month of June – feel free to check it out and follow along the process we’ve been trying.

• Pursuing God’s Will Together (Book) by Ruth Haley Barton
  (You can read the introduction to this book for free here.)

We also wanted to fuel any readers out there with a few excellent resources to help you better explore what discerning God’s will looks like. Here is the crash course:

Grace and Peace,

Jenna and The Practice Team
