We have never heard this stuff before. You’re distinction between identity, calling and role is life-giving and freeing.

The feedback was amazing. Thanks for helping us to look like we know what we’re doing. We are always truly grateful for the gift you have of communicating difficult things in such a simple way and hence helping us all to become free and experience more freedom.
