As the new year begins, we’re making decisions about summer bike rides.
2022 marks our 10th FREEDOM TOUR. Ten years of friends and community. Ten years of supporting the kids at the Home of Hope.
As our team makes choices with ten years of background, I notice how easy it is for me to fall into habits and ruts, to take the easiest or safest path. I’m grateful for a team that pushes us to get better and make the best decisions. “Best,” of course, is occasionally a matter of spirited discussion, but that’s okay. However, doing this thing has helped me understand a central fact.
Decisions cannot be separated from values.
It’s true whether we’re riding bikes or interacting with neighbors.
If I value convenience, comfort, power, control, money…my decisions will be shaped by those values. They’ll look different than choices guided by sacrifice, service, and love.
It’s worth asking, as we enter a new year, “What are the values that shape our choices?”
