A Crisis of Religion, Not A Crisis of Faith

For the past several Sundays I have skipped out on my spiritual post. I haven’t gone atheist, but I’ve had nothing to write. I thought with all the weddings that I’m in, my Sunday posts would be easy. I see God as the foundation of my marriage and I even officiated my friend’s wedding last [...]

Quote of the Day – Nature Is Our Church This Morning

March 21, 2010

We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature – trees, flowers, grass – grows in silence

Happy St. Patrick’s Day, Sort Of

March 17, 2010

I didn’t talk much about St. Patrick’s Day to my kids this year. Or last year. Or ever really. My only memories of it are green beer goggles and “Kiss me. I’m Irish” stickers

I Think The Rapture May Have Happened Already
