each year, i totally forget what labor day actually is and why i’m off work but we used it to hike to the king’s chair this morn and it made us all pretty thankful for whatever reason congress made today a thing for..
@rayortlund if a massive part of what’s next for you doesn’t include coaching/training/mentoring younger pastors, i will be writing a very strongly worded letter to my congressman..
