I used to fear preaching from Isaiah. I remember complaining to Bishop David. Now I enjoy it. Mostly, I prefer ...read more

    Life’s journey is filled with twists, turns, and unexpected challenges—many of which leave us feeling disoriented or confused. At times, we find ourselves wondering which way to go or how to move forward with clarity and purpose.

    OPENING THOUGHT: The principle that to learn something new, one must first unlearn what has been previously assimilated is both a challenging and transformative approach to knowledge acquisition and personal growth. This paradigm suggests that past learning can act as a barrier to understanding new ...read more

     | 10,029 views

    Tough love or tender love. The disciples toiling in rowing, and Jesus unusual response. (He would have passed them by.) When we get close to God we will have sympathy for others, we can also gain insight into the best way to help them.

    God's Eye View Intro: In many video games there is something called, "God's Eye View." What they mean by that is seeing things from a much better perspective and vantage point. For example, if we had a battle scene, there is the perspective of the individual soldier facing enemies that his limited ...read more

    John the Baptist sits in jail, waiting for Justice to rain down upon Herod. Meanwhile Christ preaches Good News, rather than wrath. How can we rejoice when there is no justice in this world?

    Good Morning! As someone who grew up in a liturgical church, I realize that Lent and Advent can be easy to confuse.
