Wounded Healers
Everyone carries wounds.
Some of us are able to turn our wounds into scars and use our hurt to bring healing.
How do we turn personal pain into a passion that puts others first?
Who Do You Think You Are?
Authority is an example not a command, earnt not taken, and gained only by a decision to serve.

Preaching the Gospel is good and performing works of charity is wonderful but if we do this without forgiveness towards others the are powerless words and empty deeds

We can also fall into the hubris of thinking our faith is ‘great’ and better than that of others.
Our faith grows by becoming deeper not bigger.
The Music of the Call
