    Intelligence is a gift, but it was never meant to carry the weight of the soul. Jesus invites thoughtful people to stop standing alone and abide.

    The Honest Starting Point Thoughtful people do not arrive at faith lightly. They arrive carrying questions, experiences, and scars earned through paying attention.
