To close out Shepherd Talk in 2020, Pastor Ray is joined again by Lance Griffin to recap some of the lessons the Church has learned in 2020 and then look ahead to what is to come in 2021.

• Do you make New Year's Resolutions?
• What do you think God was trying to tell the world in 2020?
• Should we really want to return to a certain level of comfort that may not have been healthy?
• How are we supposed to go into a new year after the kind of year we just had? What should be our focus?
• How did you choose "The Unsaved Christian" as the book to use for our January book study?
