We are getting ready to begin a new year on the church calendar, but even though something new is beginning it’s too easy for us to get stuck in the same old routine. Let’s prepare for this new year by renewing the direction, purpose, and soul of who we are, so that we can claim the fresh start God makes available to us. Let’s not just renew ourselves but let us re-new or make new again who we are and who we are called to be!
