These reflections are shared by Deacon Dr. Cory Driver who works for both the Southern Ohio Synod as the Director of Leadership Development, and the Indiana-Kentucky Synod. The reflections are resources for congregations of all sizes and can be used as the basis of a worship service, Bible study, small group meeting or even for personal reflection.
