The Sunday Seven and Mark your Calendars!

Each Sunday, Jamie and I walk through our calendar for the week and then the month. It's about the only thing that keeps us sane with our crazy schedules!

Then, we ask each other the following questions. I call it the Sunday Seven. I simply post these in my notebook, and we review them each Sunday evening.

1. How have I loved you well this week?

2. Where did you see God in your life this last week?

3. Is there any way you were discouraged this last week?

4. What does your upcoming week look like?

5.  How can I love you this upcoming week, relationally, intimately, and spiritually?

7. How can I encourage you this week? 

6. How can I specifically pray for you this week?

Today as we reviewed our calendar, I realized how many cool things we will be doing for The Forgotten Initiative in the coming weeks, and you are welcome to join us!
