A Christmas Prayer
A Christmas Blessing Let us pray together this Christmas: May our minds be opened to further understand where we need Christ’s light in our lives. May our ears be opened to hear the words of Christ calling us to make room for Him in our lives. May our eyes be...
Advent – Seeing Through the Eyes of Joseph
There have been many times I have imagined myself as Mary in a scene from the Gospels. I have imagined almost every feeling she must have had navigating being the Mother of God. I have viscerally felt her fear, anxiety, joy, and, most of all, deep, lasting love for...

Like many of you, I find that January is a good time to review the past year, notice hopes and desires that might be stirring, and make some choices about where I want to refocus my energy. Over time I’ve become more intentional about including Jesus in this review,...
Setting Up My Year in Christ – Christ’s Call to be the Center of my Life
Keep Christ at the Center: Why? We can cite numerous theological reasons to put Christ at the center of life. But I find it quite effective to look at the alternatives. Why center my life on Christ? Well, if not on Christ, then what becomes my center? Do I want...
