Today begins a season I’ve been anticipating for a long time.

Sabbatical is not simply about stepping away from responsibilities. It is about stepping toward attentiveness. It creates space to listen more carefully to what God may be saying after many years of steady ministry rhythm.

As this journey begins, I’m especially praying for clarity, renewal, and gratitude for what God has already done.

One thing I’m asking the Lord during this season:

Lord, Your word says that the steps of a righteous person are ordered by the Lord. So, what’s my next step?
