Welcome to the Sunday Evening Sofa! (from the Small Stories about Big Things newsletter)
Each edition you receive a couple of quotes and one question.
My hope? Maybe you can lean back onto your Sunday evening sofa with…
a bit more encouragement,
a bit more calm,
and a helpful thought or two sitting with your soul.

QUESTION
Where on our calendar can we open space to tend not to task, to-do, or target… but to a relationship (or two) in our life?1
