But this one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead... Phil. 3:13b (NRSV)
As we prepare for a New Year it is always good to look at where we have been, evaluate its effectiveness, and use it as a springboard for making our next year together in Christ even better!
