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.

Good morning, everyone.

Welcome to Inklings.

Happy Thursday.

We're so excited to be here.

My cute friend Amy came to my house, so we're having inklings together today, which is so fun because then we're doing a little bit of work

afterwards and that sounded so fun. Just a fun brainstorm. But before the brainstorm,

inklings. So that's so fun.

And we, okay, I'll do the catch-up first because you guys are going to die laughing at the catch-up.

So, and it's always nice when you get to have a laughing catch-up.

And plus, we're talking about joy today, so why not? So Greg had his last chemo.

We talked about last week. And then this week, he is back at work and we actually feel like we see the light at the end of the tunnel. Although just saying that, I will tell you the cutest

story and see if this is true for you.

I met this lady on an airplane years ago who was going through chemotherapy and she had lost all of her

hair and it was her last chemo was just right then at that time. And we said to her, do you see the light at the end of the

tunnel? And then she said, oh, I've carried the light with me the whole way. Isn't that so cute?

Yeah. So which also has been true for us is we've just felt that light the whole way carrying us through.
