Contributed by Shaila Touchton on Feb 20, 2024

I want to write about a topic that affects many of us is contentment with ourselves. Many people go to great lengths to hide their age, from cosmetic procedures to fashion choices.

We struggle to be happy with the way we are, the way we look, and the way we are aging. We live in a world that constantly bombards us with messages telling us we need to be younger, prettier, stronger, and more successful. In today’s society, there is a prevalent trend of attempting to reverse ...read more

Prophets In Our Lives

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jul 2, 2024

Retreat And Regroup

Forsaken?

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 9, 2022

The psalm we sang today, the psalm He prayed on the cross as He gradually suffocated to death, begins with an apparent cry of despair: “God, why have you forsaken me?”

Passion (Palm) Sunday In the four Gospels there are four slightly different accounts of the passion, death and resurrection of Jesus. St Mark’s is the briefest of them all. He records only one statement of Jesus. But what all four Evangelists agree on is this: Jesus died praying. He died as ...read more

Come To A Lonely Place

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 30, 2024

We tend in our enthusiasm to forget that WE are not the saviors of the world. The world already has one of those, and He is unmatchable.
