Wyndy Corbin Reuschling reminds us of God’s great invitation to be a part of His work in the world and inspires us to join that work through investing in our communities. 

• Check out this article from Wyndy: God Invites Us
• For more on calling, check out Episode 3.
• “God has gifted humans with capacities to use gifts and skills and knowledge and wisdom and education to continue the work that God has in creation.”
• “We are all called to be disciples of Jesus, we are all called to be in Christian community, and we’re all called, I think, to use our gifts and graces to participate in God’s work in the world. Maybe the specifics are left more to us than we might think.”
• “We aren’t pawns in a giant cosmic scheme. We are invited by the living God.”
• “God still loves the world, and God still works to redeem it.”
• “The deepest tragedy in our world is not that rich folks don’t care about poor folks; the tragedy is that rich folks don’t know poor folks.” - Shane Claiborne
• The Prophetic Imagination by Walter Brueggemann
• “And of course it starts with us, doesn’t it? Does the love of God properly order my love of students, my love of my community, my spouse - and then, how does that get practiced?”
• “My Lord God, I have no idea where I am going [...] but I believe that the desire to please You does in fact please You.” - The Merton Prayer
• “I think that there’s a wide range of grace to make decisions to participate in God’s work in the world.”
