Welcome to Inklings. I am Emily Bell Freeman, and I'm so excited to welcome you to a space where you and I get to experience a hint of something more together.

This is a community where we lean into discussions that will help us obtain a bedrock understanding of the doctrines of Christ.

Not overnight, but every day better.

Strength gathered over time. There is a place for you here. Looking forward to spending this

semester with you as we embark on a journey focused on becoming his.

Morning, everyone.

Happy Thursday.

Welcome to Inklings.

And welcome back, everyone who was at the grace fireside last night now we have more conversation if you weren't at the grace fire side last night it was a really good discussion we were just

got cozy because it was freezing and then we just had such a good

conversation about grace. So you might want to go back and check on that. But otherwise,

welcome back, everyone who was already there. Let me just see about our cute friend who's

coming today.

Okay.

I want to do this morning as we're getting started, but let me tell you where we're going to be.

We are going to be in the New Testament.

Good morning. Hi, Vanessa. to be. We are going to be in the New Testament. You'll want your new testament.

Good.

Good.

How are you?

Okay, good.

Me too.
