Ebenezer's: remembering what God has done
A host argues people need Ebenezer's — physical or written reminders of God's faithfulness — and tells a youth-group story from fifteen years ago when he angrily shushed two women who turned out to be discussing his own sermon; God surfaced the memory during that morning's journaling as an answer to feeling unheard. The room extends the idea to Old Testament rituals, Passover, and communion as God-designed memory aids for short-memoried people.
