    Studying the details and the meaning of Passover is quite an undertaking, but three facts seem obvious. Let’s note these facts.

Dad then recounts the story of the Exodus. 2. Comedian George Burns, who was ...read more

    Today is National Ice Cream Day. Did you know that when ice cream was invented the Quakers thought it was sinful. According to them it had to be sinful.

    A message to military chaplains considering the major transition of retirement

    I’ve heard it said, “Real soldiers don’t know any civilians.” For those who make the military chaplaincy a career (the lifers), there is the danger of becoming institutionalized.

    There’s a right way and a wrong way to "do" church. The right way is the one that takes the most work.

    A woman once told about her good friend and fellow parishioner who had just bought a house that was between the preacher’s house and that owned by the chairman of the deacons. I teased her a bit.
