We used the words “Reimagining the Good Life.” We renamed this newsletter, and my podcast, and I began speaking about the idea of reimagining the good life, reimagining family life, and reimagining disability.

And it’s exactly in that context that we need the work of reimagining.

"If we cultivate a practice of releasing fear, placing our deep trust in a God who loves us, then we're free. We're free to be curious. We're free to take risks. We're free to extend our hand to people whom we might see as enemies." - Rev. Corey Widmer 🎙️ https://t.co/VgGOv1OOWh https://t.co/iQVxHb6BmI
