What's Your Heart's Longing? Podcast Episode

If you were to envision a world in which your deepest desires (for yourself, your community and family, humankind, and creation) were manifested, what would it look like? What does your longing tell you about God? About God’s call for you?

For reflection:

  • Considering the world right now, its deep needs, its darkness, its hunger, for what do you long?

  • Considering the church right now, locally, globally, for what do you long?

  • Considering your community, how things stand, who’s a part of it, your gifts and challenges, locally, globally, for what do you long?

  • Considering your family, who’s a part of it, their ages, their stages in life, the dynamic you have together, for what do you long?

  • Considering exactly where you are in life, this moment, given your challenges, given things that are hard, your incompleteness, your limitations, your gifts, your joys — what’s your heart’s longing?
