June 9, 2020

I am an Audible junkie. Seriously, my favorite day of the month is the 20th, when my Audible subscription renews and I can dive into the life of a different historical figure whose story is often stranger than fiction. Last month, in the middle of the COVID-19 lockdown, [...]

The Cure That We Crave

June 2, 2020

If quarantine has taught me anything, it’s that there’s no escape. The quick and temporary cure to suffering that the world had so generously offered me in the past (yes, I am talking to you, TJ Maxx) is no longer an option. I have had to learn how to sit in the undesirable a few hours longer than I care to, [...]

Finding Confidence in the Age of Anxiety

May 26, 2020

COVID-19, 2 Corinthians and Sauvignon Blanc

May 5, 2020

Cancellations, Restorations, and Defining Moments

Small Miracles on the Other Side of Comfort

March 31, 2020

Have you ever carried a large statue of Mary, up hill, in a trash bag, in the snow? I haven’t either, but I did watch a student do this very thing a few years ago when I helped lead a college mission trip to Peru. Our trip leader told us that it wasn’t supposed to rain, [...]

Sick Cats, Dead Guinea Pigs, and Walking the Path of Obedience

March 10, 2020

Ever since I dropped some packages off at the post office and the postal worker handed me a receipt for $6.66, and I looked at him and him at me, until finally he said, “I didn’t want to say it out loud” and I said, [...]

Fasting from your point of view and feasting on the perspective of another

February 25, 2020

“For he is our peace, he who made both one and broke down the dividing wall of enmity, through his flesh.” Ephesians 2:14
