In the Encounters section the text is explored more fully, and it would be helpful to have looked at this prior to engaging in this one. Sometimes we become so familiar with a text that it ceases to speak. Poetry and art can bring the text alive once again. Hopefully the art and poetry here will do that.Discipleship is a life long journey. Engaging in conversation and dialogue and sharing insights can deepen our understanding and our response. ................
