Sorry for the delay in this week’s summary, I was out of town visiting my daughter and her family in Colorado – here are some pics of Fly Fishing in Eagle River and the Denver Botanical Garden.

Tuesday Question
If you could sit down with Jesus over a cup of coffee today, what’s the one thing you would ask Him? No “right” answer. It could be about faith, doubt, relationships, the world, your future—or something you’ve wondered about for years. Share your comments on the Exile Community page.

Thursday Reflection
Mike Mast shared our 3rd week of our 5 week series on Shame. Here is the video. I know this is a deep topic but I’m excited about what God will do through speaking to our hearts about shame. Shame grows in secrecy and isolation. Healing begins when we find safe people and the courage to be known.

Saturday Song of the Week
On Saturday, Karen Egyud posted the Song of the Week. The song is “Come into the Light” by TAYA. Here is the YouTube Link

I love the lyrics Mike Mast posted from this song. “Are you wounded from all the pain, of hidden sin and secret shame . . . Come into the light . . . And you will find a Savior. This song also ties into our Shame series.

Sunday Podcast
On Sunday, we posted the 2nd week of our Questions Podcast with the 3 leaders of Exile – Mike Mast, Karen Egyud, and myself. Questions don’t have to weaken our faith. Sometimes they’re part of how it grows.
