We are in the second week of Advent and together hundreds of people in the East District are reading chapter 15 in the devotional book by Brian McLaren, titled We Make the Road by Walking. At this moment close your eyes, imagine someone in another church reading the same words you are reading, then say a prayer for that person and for our Churches. Let’s join on today’s discussion.

ll of the churches and pastors in East District of the Desert Southwest Conference have been invited to journey together in a new way during the next year. Starting this week, the first week in Advent, we are reading through the devotional book by Brian McLaren, titled We Make the Road by Walking. We are starting with the Advent readings, which begins with chapter 14. We will read one chapter each week, imagining what it is like to have the entire District reading the same thing at the same time. Now that you have the background information, let’s get started.
