How do we Apply Faith?

There are certain moments in our lives that give us pause. They stop us in our tracks and challenge us to reflect on our priorities, our relationships and our purpose. These moments come when we face a difficult diagnosis, a significant milestone or an unexpected change in life circumstances. We face these moments in the death of a friend, family member or public figure, especially when the loss is tragic and untimely. When we pause, we take time to process with others, to share stories, to pray and to examine our own lives. Life slows down. But what comes after the pause? How does the event or experience inform us and impact our future?
