Our pastor, Eric Sanzone, and his family have been an integral part of our story after Michael's accident. Eric is the Co-Lead Pastor of Grace Bible Church in Virginia Beach and a gifted communicator. Over the past year, he has been teaching our church about something called "The Process." These ideas are tools in our toolbox for how to live fully in this tragic world. Every single one of us can learn from Part 1 of this episode with Eric Sanzone. We mention the Serenity Prayer in this episode: God grant me the serenityto accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference. Living one day at a time; enjoying one moment at a time; accepting hardships as the pathway to peace; taking, as He did, this sinful worldas it is, not as I would have it; trusting that He will make all things rightif I surrender to His Will; that I may be reasonably happy in this lifeand supremely happy with Himforever in the next. Amen. (Reinhold Niebuhr) Be in the first group to know where we'll travel together and when to secure a spot- fill out the survey here! Megan's Websites
