- Brandon … I don't have much in the tank

Opening Blessing
We want to be powerful in the pursuit of our highest aspirations. We seek to be motivated, and to persevere. May our work together be blessed with these fruits of Passion. -- Blessed Be

Evaluation
- Brandon … thanks for pushing on this Passion verse, Ben … it's really fun to think about what this is and what we're trying to remind ourselves of
- Ben … sometime, possibly a year or two ago I was asking why the We Believe was your name “and the community” and you said maybe the next version will be “By Ben and the Community,” and I'm now wondering whether I want to take you up on it and start from scratch. (Brandon says “go for it!”)
Closing Blessing
We care passionately about how we define our work, it shapes what the work will be and how well it will align with our highest aspirations. May we choose this definition wisely and move beyond it to continue the work that we wish to do. -- Blessed Be
