Goodbyes are rough, but it’s time to bid farewell to our Habits That Work series. We’ve spent a month of coffee dates chatting through all the what’s, why’s, and how’s related to our habits. So, let’s sip on one last cup of Joe and talk about the Who (um, not the band). We’ll circle through Romans 12:1-2 one more time, together. www.glordinary.com Here’s a small excerpt: "That’s the purpose of a r...
