Our small group has been working through this material and really enjoying it. In our last meeting, we were asked to consider giving our life "a theme".
So if your life was a movie, what would be put on the poster?
Or, if your life was a book, what would the caption or title be?
Too often, I think, we settle into accepting our themes as our roles. I'm a husband or wife, I'm a mother or a father, I'm a banker or teacher or nurse or firefighter or doctor or pastor, so we see our life's theme through the lens of our role(s).
While role(s) are important- and we get to their importance later in the curriculum- the theme is also important.
So, what say you? What's the theme of your life thus far?
