“The invitation is always more than just an invitation…” In this episode I share a little bit about the anxiety I felt as I was putting together the list of people to invite to my daughter’s wedding. I tell of some interesting ideas about the power of invitations, like being a witness and belonging. Also the hard side of not being able to invite everyone and worrying about leaving people out. Finally, how all of this can also remind us of Jesus Christ and his invitations to us.
Show Notes: Hi Friends! I hope you enjoyed listening to this episode. Below are all the references.
What I learned this week: For me for some reason I had a lot of anxiety about the invitationsfor the wedding. How do I make sure to remember all of the right people over all the years. And in the episode I also found a few articles about how it is really powerful to invite people to things.
This one was one of my favorites: “The invitation is always more than just an invitation, it is the acknowledgement that you exist, that you matter, and carries an aspect of ‘you belong here’.
Powerful emotions. Powerful innate human needs. To be seen. To matter. To belong.” By Amos Doornbos.
