Savannah, what's up? How are you? Good. How are you? I am good. So I love having you here. This is your first one because you helped with this brick right behind us.
Looks great. Yeah, you are a woman of many crafts. I guess. Yeah. So I know what
brought you here into this work, into this network, into this paradigm.
Yeah. A boy. And so you've been around for about a year and a half.
Yeah, about a year and a half. So, what's in a year and a half time besides the
boy? A man, excuse me, my bad. A man, what is most exciting to you about this
paradigm or the way of Christ and His apostles? What's most exciting to you right
now?
Well, my recent works in identifying And just,
I think just learning the truth, like I've been a part of churches, but like coming
here, it's like so clear that this is like the way. So like learning more about
myself and about God and just what's happening. - So what is identifying?
You mentioned the resource identifying. - I mean, what is that? - It's like,
basically you like write things down about yourself and then you have to like
expand. But it's just like a resource that helps you like get to know yourself,
get to know your gifts. Like sometimes what you should be doing with your life if
you're doing the right thing with your life, things like that. - Okay, so what are
you learning about yourself? Well, I was previously in a very different field than I
am now in work, and then I switched over to being an EA. EA is early.
What is the EA? Educational associate. Educational associate. Okay. So, I kind of
confirmed that I'm doing the right thing and I'm not, like,
off on the wrong path. What did you learn about yourself that?
That's like what I'm doing now. And like encouraging people, finding ways to do
that, so. - So I have to ask you something else. Then what, you mentioned the word
map. What is map? - Like my gifts. - Your specific gifts.
- Yeah. - Yeah, your motivated. - Abilities. - Ability, pattern. - Yes. - Thank you,
- Yeah. - So, Um,
what is your, so this is a big grand, big question, but what is your,
from what you've known and what you've learned about yourself, what is your life
purpose at this stage? - I think teaching,
being a leading woman and like just keeping on the path that I am and just
teaching. I think teaching is like the biggest thing right now. - So what are you,
you said keep learning. I assume you, I see you have a brown notebook here,
a folio to collect all your work in. So what you've done identifying,
which is learning by yourself. Are you doing anything next or are you doing anything
right now? Well right now. I'm gonna try to start going through the third encyclical
Okay, just going through that and then I'm going through life(n) I'm trying
to finish up that and I've gone through the first series of first principles. Okay
Trying to get through the second. Okay, so wow that You just listened a lot. I'm
not sure I can remember how it goes. Okay, so you've done the first principles.
You're starting on the second series. You've done, I already forgot,
you've done identifying. That's who you're designed to be as a person. You are going
to start doing life to the nth. What is life to the nth? Life to the nth is more
of like your life purpose and like your legacy, see what you want for your life,
or you want to be going. So I need to have you back on here and ask you about
your life purpose after you do life to the end. I guess so, yeah. Okay, so I
prematurely ask you that question. What was your, what was the other resource you
said you were doing? The Encyclical. Encyclical, what's the, and the third Encyclical
that you said? Yeah, the third one is Women, Women in the Early Church. Yeah,
Women in - Women in spontaneous expansion, perhaps, yeah. - Haven't done a lot of
research. - Yeah, I think it might be somewhere right here, somewhere right around
us, but okay. So as you look to the days ahead,
what are you most excited about?
- Well, I think like in my head, I have an idea of what I want my life to be,
but I think life to the end will either confirm or deny what I'm supposed to be
doing.
So I'm just trying to figure out what I'm supposed to do.
- Yeah, okay.
Why are you taking this so seriously?
'Cause how old are you, Savannah, can I ask you? How old are your night team. Why
are you taking your faith development seriously? You've been in and out of the
church or in the church for a lot of your life, but you've, at this stage,
you've really begun to take your faith development and maturity seriously. You just
mentioned five different resources. So why? Why are you doing this?
Well, it's important to me. And I want other people to see that my life reflecting
it. So, I think, like, obviously doing those things to reflect the gospel is really
important to me. And I just want other people around me to ask me questions and
stuff like that and I can tell them. They can tell them. Yeah. Excellent.
Well, this is simple. Yeah. This is beautiful. Yeah. It's been great having you.
You are a stable,
thoughtful. You like to laugh and Jade was just on,
you're on and you're on your way to becoming Proverbs 31 women and that's as a
second generation and as our first generation it's so encouraging to see a third
generation. That's taking it seriously, that's it because it's because that's what we
need to do we always need to be pass it on so yeah I'm thankful for you for
helping me with with this brick yeah along with your man and and and just being
involved in all our lives so yeah great to have you on Savannah yeah thanks
