We've got two Sunday's left in our study of Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde's New York Times Bestselling book, "How We Learn to Be Brave: Decisive Moments in Life and Faith." In prior weeks, we've talked about decisive moments in life -- The Decision to Go, The Decision to Stay, The Decision to Start, The Decision to Accept What We Do Not Choose, and The Decision to Step Up to the Plate.
