Happy Birthday Holy Shenanigans! This week we ponder a Jesus story about identity, calling and the power of setting boundaries, hear a birthday story about a stolen cupcake, get some advice from the poet Rilke on how to live into doubts, and hear an original song by Tara called Cross Roads. As we stand on the threshold of the autumn season and all the changes it brings, let's take a minute to fill in our blanks of “Get behind me _____, so we can get on down the road.”
Join Tara for a free online discussion about wholehearted living on Sunday, August 24 at 6 pm EST.
