Colossians 3:15-17 Your will, your decision-making, your politics, your emotions, your

purpose, your deepest identity, your life-paradigms, your intellect, your rational thought and planning, your determination, your courage, your desires, and your identity-shaping memory must reflect shalom as lived, taught, and demonstrated by Christ; because this, after all, is the non-negotiable vocation to which you were formed into one people and is why you were mandated to function as the body of Christ in the world. And this is possible because of the free grace and multitude of gifts that have been given to you, and converts you into a eucharistic community of wisdom, celebration, discernment, and gratitude.
