. (Note: there are other episodes in the series. We will watch some of the others in later weeks). After watching the episode, reflect on what youve seen in light of our readings from Hagberg and Guelichs The Critical Journey. Respond to the following questions:
As you consider Ed’s story, how did his understanding of identity, ministry, and mission change after ALS began to take over his life? What did ALS prohibit him from doing and what did it enable him to do? In what ways was his relationship with God transformed and deepened through the experience?
As you reflect on the video, what does it prompt you to consider in your own life and ministry?
