  <title>158. The Reflective Pause of Winter</title>
  <description>Out of the Ordinary Reflections:  This season is full of expectations but we aren't living the expectations we see on Hallmark.&amp;amp;nbsp; We are living in real lives, needing a real Jesus in the darkness. We all need a balm of hope to nourish our hearts during this season that helps us take a deep breath.&amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp; Winter is a pause and gives us space to reflect on where we really are, not where consumer culture is wanting us to be. Where is your heart today?&amp;amp;nbsp; Lisa-Jo is reading from  The Shadow Doctor by Adrian Plass. Christie's is reading from:  A Child in Winter: Advent, Christmas, and Epiphany with Caryll Houselander, edited by Thomas Hoffman.
