Out of the Ordinary Winter Reflections:

• Where's Jesus on the days when it seems He has fallen asleep in the storm?  Jesus was asleep on the boat because he wasn't afraid of the waves.
• Let's lean into our dear friendships when it gets hard instead of leaning out. Especially now.  Especially after this year. 
• Can you be "prayer in action" in this season for someone?  Jesus didn't just talk about rescuing, He did it. 
• Look for the face of God this week.  He's there in the ordinary moments and in the faces around you.
• Lisa-Jo is reading from "My Faith Leaks" from The Middle Matters by Lisa-Jo Baker. 
• Christie's is reading from "Writing a Sermon, December 23" by Mary F. C. Pratt found in Light Upon Light, compiled by Sarah Arthur.
