As we continue pondering Philippians, the second chapter has us discussing unity, suffering, humility, and recognizing that Jesus journeys alongside us in all of it as our model. This chapter of Philippians holds a very dear place in Andrea's heart and is meeting Lizz where she is at in a season filled with challenges. We hope this discussion will aid in your own time of mediation in scripture especially as we head into the Lenten season.

When we immerse ourselves in the Word throughout our life, coming back to scripture feels like getting coffee with an old friend (wise words by Andrea). Our lives are often filled with many moving pieces as we navigate through different seasons, but we can always come back to the firm foundation of scripture. This season, we decide to return to scripture and spend time soaking in His presence. We will move through Philippians, spending time paying attention to the ways that God is speaking to us in this season of our lives. In this cold, cozy season, we encourage you to spend some time with your "old friend" and a cup of coffee, if you'd like.

During this advent season we discuss another great read, Noticing by Kobi Yamada. This story again showcases a friendship between an older woman who is a painter and a young girl. The young girl is impacted by the painters view of the world. The painter encourages the young girl to slow down, to wonder, and notice things-even those we can't see. These practices felt fitting for advent as Pope Benedict XVI reminds us in Advent Calls Us to Silence that this season is about slowing down and taking notice to the ways the Lord is pursuing us. We hope this conversation aids in creating more slowness in your season of life and a deeper desire for growth in the art of noticing.
