Healing Peace
10 Dec, 2018
It's time for a true confession: this year and last Christmas season, Julie and I have sort of binge-watched Hallmark Christmas movies. Seriously, I’m a sucker for a happy ending, true love, and the wonder and magic of Christmas bringing people...
Hope in the Face of Hopelessness
03 Dec, 2018
The days are surely coming, says YHWH, when I will bestow on Israel and Judah all the blessings I promised them. In those days and at that time I will raise up a righteous branch from the line of David, who will bring justice and integrity to...
Re-imaging Christ the King
27 Nov, 2018
Last Sunday marked the end of the Christian calendar year and was celebrated by churches all around the world as Christ the King Sunday. Personally, I think Jesus would have been appalled at the title, but let’s take a look at it. Where did it...
Antidote to Negativity
19 Nov, 2018
I wonder how much we really pay attention to our thoughts, and especially to how much of our thinking might be negative and unhelpful? I typically consider myself an optimistic, glass half-full person. But I realize that I’m more than capable...

12 Nov, 2018
Here’s the bottom line… our stories have to change before the world changes. The stories we tell ourselves and our children about who we are and who God is are the foundational building blocks of our understanding and the way we behave and...
Companioning Grief
05 Nov, 2018

Clarity of Vision
23 Oct, 2018
In the story of Jesus and the blind man, Bartimaeus (Mark 10:46-52), Jesus asks Barimaeus, "What would you have me do for you?" and Bartimaeus responds, "I want to see." As I read this scripture I wonder, if Jesus asked us today, “What do you...
Spirituality of Resilience
15 Oct, 2018
Resilience is our ability to bounce back from adversity, stress, trauma or challenges in life. How bouncy are we? And what does spirituality have to do with bounciness? And why are some people more bouncy than others? We all know people who...
Keep Dreaming
08 Oct, 2018
If someone said to you that you were a dreamer, how would you take it? Probably negatively. These days it’s a pejorative saying to call someone a dreamer. It means you’re not in touch with reality, or they think that what you’re dreaming is...
Tough Self-Love
01 Oct, 2018
"If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It would be better to enter Life crippled than to have hands and go into Gehenna, where the fire never goes out. If your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better to enter Life crippled than...
