The Write Reconciliation: I Thought We'd Never Speak Again

#JustWrite, we have made it to the final blog of 2023!! Estrangement, Forgiveness, Reconciliation. These three words are the subject of this month's book club selection, "I Thought We'd Never Speak Again," by author Laura Davis. These three words are also words that we are all familiar with throughout our relationships with others: family, spouses, co-workers, etc. If you are on the brink of rekindling an estranged relationship or torn between whether you should forgive and reconcile, this is a great read to help jumpstart the process. The book is a combination of transparency, inspiration, and practicality with personal stories and a self-assessment activity. 



As we come into the Christmas season, this book will help spark a much needed conversation, with loved ones of course, with the leading and wisdom of the Lord. Will it be easy? No. Is it worth it? Absolutely! So many people leave this world with unfinished business between loved ones: anger, bitterness, and unspoken words due to pride and unforgiveness. "‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭4:32‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ says, [32] "And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you." 

Join our last conversation on Tuesday, December 26, 2023 at 6pm. As you celebrate Christmas, be inspired by the redemptive story of Christ and His birth which brought forth a reconciliation for us to the Father. 

Have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!! See you all in 2024!!

In His service,
