This was very helpful and instructive. Thinking of obedience as relational is a good mental shift for me.

Have you come across any good literature or do you have any thoughts on the way authority plays out in the Godhead?

I really enjoyed the book “heartfelt discipline” by Clay Clarkson. He offers a beautiful picture of authority that is loving and firm. He also offers practical guidance for various types of discipline- which is really discipleship— as a tool for connecting and coach in our children toward the Path of Life.

The book of Proverbs and Job are both good pictures of how this plays out.

Hope you’re doing well!! I’d love to touch base again if you are available. I enjoyed our conversation so much:)

Oh, I did too! And I would love that. We are prepping to go back to Serbia end of February - perhaps mid to late March if that works for you.

Yes. Just let me know what works when time gets closer.
