Sometimes the hardest decisions aren\u2019t about starting something new \u2014 they\u2019re about what to do after a decision has already been made. Maybe your church changed direction. Maybe your organization chose a path you wouldn\u2019t have chosen. Now you\u2019re left holding the question: Do I stay, or is it time to go? In this episode, Tanner Smith, Chase Rashad Stancle, and Sarah Johnson explore what faithful discernment looks like when you find yourself out of step with your community. Drawing on personal stories, leadership experiences, and practices from the Christian tradition, they talk about how to slow down, notice what\u2019s happening inside you, and discern your next step without rushing toward relief or avoiding the question altogether. In this episode, you\u2019ll hear: Why the deeper question isn\u2019t just \u201cShould I stay or go?\u201d but who you\u2019re becoming as you discern How to tell the difference between healthy discomfort, anxiety, and harm Practical ways to discern your next step \u2014 including the \u201csandbox week\u201d practice and taking small, reversible actions Show Notes Discernment by Henri Nouwen  Ignatian practice of the Examen (consolation and desolation) If you're interested in learning more about The Colossian Forum, visit our website colossianforum.org, and follow us on social media @colossianforum.
