The readings for this week are Jeremiah 23:1-6, Psalm 46, (Luke 1:68-79), Colossians 1:11-20, and Luke 23:33-43.  This week we look how often we are willing to call out something and say that it "won't work".  In doing that we sometimes miss the great point and the opportunity it provides.  Thanks again for taking the time out to listen to this and I hope this is a tool that you find useful.  Remember to answer this week's question:Where have you persecuted, to later find put you were drastically wrong? #faithandscipodcast
