6/4/2019 2 Comments Get Ready!Here's a short one for you. In preparation for our weekend at Olmstead, which you all should attend, think about what it means to have an outward mindset. Initially, you may think that's easy; care for the world and think less of yourselves. Take a second more and deeply ponder what it really means to you. How can you implement that in your lives? What does this actually look like in a typical Christian's life?
In a pre-college essay competion I was asked to write on the subject of faith integration in learning. Easy, I thought. Look at the world through God's eyes. Love others in our work. Seek to do God's will. However, as my time progressed and I became slightly wiser and more worldly, I learned that there is so much more to life. The way we live out our faith is much more complex than the simple words we use to describe our actions. Love. Well, what all is involved in love? Believe. What grounds our beliefs? Looking back, I wrote a pretty superficial essay. But then again, what is college if not for learning! With this in mind, take a moment and think what an outward mindset looks like in your life. Share some thoughts with us and we'll use the ideas to direct our discussions at the retreat.
