Live For Those Things Worth Dying For
20 May, 2024
Let’s be clear, Jesus didn’t die to save humankind from their sins. That’s a great cover story and it’s been really effective. No, he died trying to save Judaism from its corrupt leadership. The Jewish authorities had sold out to Rome for...
Ground of All Being
13 May, 2024
I wasn’t brought up in a church. In retrospect, I think nature was my sanctuary, my church, when I was young. I grew up on an acre of land in Brookfield and there was an empty lot adjoining ours. Along the back of that property was an area...
Breath Bridge
06 May, 2024
In Acts 17, the author reminds us that God does not live in a sanctuary, or temple, or mosque, or cathedral, or anything made by human hands. This seems like a no-brainer to us, but the ancient people weren't there yet. Plus, the author tells...

The Gift of Hope
01 Apr, 2024
I always try to be honest with you and preach with as much integrity as possible, which sometimes means that I’m going to tell you that I struggle with certain topics, certain days. This is one of them. I struggle with Easter. Seems odd, doesn’...
Day of Tears
30 Mar, 2024
When Jesus rode into Jerusalem on the back of a young donkey, people lined the streets shouting “Hosanna!” which is a Hebrew expression of two words meaning “Save, I [we] pray.” As I said on Sunday, those shouts had absolutely nothing to do...
The Gift of Justice
25 Mar, 2024
What is justice? Too many people mean punishment when they say they want justice . Justice is a righting of the universe, it equalizes, makes safer, makes more compassionate, more accepting. Justice is distributive, restorative, not retributive...
The Gift of Discernment
18 Mar, 2024
Discernment, in spirituality, is the ability to sense the presence of the divine in wisdom and/or guidance; to perceive intuitively, or spiritually, the answers, insight, or the best path forward. I believe Jesus offered the gift of discernment...
