I am trying to find Volume 2, Winter 2022; From Captivity to the Wilderness. When I select that volume from the drop down menu for Volumes, it is Volume 6 resources that appear. Can you help?
Daniel Davis says
My apologies, Terry. I did not realize that the Adults blog posts were still posting to that Winter volume. I’ve cleaned up the tags for the posts, so they should be easier to find by volume now, but you can go here directly for the Winter 2021-22 Adults and Students additional resources post.
