“What would it mean for you today to “return home” and to re-establish your identity, your purpose and your direction? Is it possible that you have strayed from the path to which you have committed yourself, and that you need to be called back? What would it look like for you to renew your purpose and to reclaim your vocation?” Br. David Vryhof considers how the example of Nehemiah, the governor, and Ezra, the priest and scribe, calling the people of Israel back to their core identity and purpose, can inspire us to do the same.
