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.

Hello, hello. Good morning.

Hi, Inklings family. Okay.

Oh, I'm excited for this morning.

This has been a big morning for me,

so I am no less than frazzled.

We had a big launch today.

There's Shima.

Okay, guys, I should have followed up

and been more in touch.

I think Emily's daughter helps do the post, and I should have followed up with her.

I don't know that we got an intro out to introduce you to Shima.

So I am going to have her introduce herself a little bit.

Oh, thank you.

Yes, it's my birthday week, you guys.

It was my birthday on Tuesday, right?

Yes.

Okay, let's see if Shima's here. There's she. Good morning.
