Happy Saint Patrick Day! Today we are going to start by learning 5 things you probably didn’t know about St. Patrick. I’m going to end by talking about making a plan utilizing the Atomic Habits approach by James Clear. And as always, the bulk of our time together will be spent doing the actual Christian practices of prayer, spiritual reading and gratitude. Links to the Lords prayer, Serenity Prayer, and the Apostles Creed can be found in the show notes.
