Our lesson this evening is about [[growth]]. We are all of us growing. Life is constant growth. Some years we [[receive]] more [[spiritual]] [[food]] and [[water]]. We are in those years growing more rapidly. In times of spiritual [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drought drought] and [[famine]] we grow more slowly. The tree is sturdy, nonetheless, and strong within, even in those times of spiritual malnourishment. You see, it requires nutrients and nurturing of the [[soul]] for its adequate, proper, and steady growth to take place. This is my [[mission]] to you, to provide the [[waters]] of [[hope]], [[truth]], life [[abundant]], and the nutrients of [[wisdom]], [[experience]], and [[character]] building.

B1: "Just a [[tactical]] question Daniel. We have been in the [[practice]] of meeting on Sunday mornings in the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Methodist_Church Methodist church] but we have to vacate that premise. And it occurred to me that when this all happened to us that it was probably for the best inasmuch as your teaching might not be [[comfortable]] or the [[experience]] of having this happening in the Methodist church might not be comfortable..and I am sure you know all this.. and we planned to meet instead in [[homes]]..and we planned at least..unless you want to make a [[change]] in this...we planned to meet this coming Sunday morning at 9:30 in D2 R3s' home. Is there any [[problem]] with that as our initial meeting as far as you can see?"
