CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I shared a story about a car accident I saw last night. Three kids were in a rather nice SUV and went off into a ditch. They had been clearly drinking as I smelled alcohol in the car heavily. It was a good opportunity where I could’ve witnessed to the kids but did not. God gives us opportunities that we need to act on.  We also talked about tolerating the sinner but not tolerating the sin. Jesus died as we were still sinners for us, but he did not like sin.
