Welcome back to Soil & Soul and another episode of Tuesday's Toolbox. Today, host Aaron reflects on the value of a good strong spotlight as a tool, to illuminate our path forward and our tasking before us. And it's certainly the same within our faith lives as well, where we need spotlighting tools to help guide us forward and also in our calling to do so for others in illumination. And as our Catholic Passage mission tagline reads, "Inspiring Passageways for Christ".
