Just Call Me Pastor Late Enough. Seriously. Call Me!

June 7, 2010
Pastor Late Enough

No, I haven’t started my own church (YET!), but I got ordained! For the day! (Welcome to Virginia!)  And I had the honor of pronouncing my friends, C&M, husband and wife. I was AWESOME.  So I’m going into the areligious God business!  Here’s a little glimpse into what Pastor Late Enough can do for you. While [...]

A Crisis of Religion, Not A Crisis of Faith

June 6, 2010

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 [...]

Laying On The Hotel Floor Does Not Make Your Children Sleep And Other Travel Tips

May 28, 2010

It just took laying on the floor of a dark hotel room to get my kids to fall asleep two hours after their normal bedtime. And our room doesn’t have WiFi. Just an ethernet cord. That does NOT reach the bed. So I’m in a dark room with two sleeping children. I’m afraid to move. [...]

April 30, 2010

You Do The Right Thing. I’ll Just Sit Here.

April 25, 2010

I know God will not give me anything I can’t handle. I just wish that He didn’t trust me so much. -Mother Teresa I have times, as a friend, a mom, a wife, a person, when I don’t want to show up. I want to pull the covers over my head. I want to tell [...]

Prayer Changes Me And Even The Atheists Say Hallelujah

April 18, 2010

A friend tweets out: And I reply: I agree. Profound response, I know. But I truly believe what he wrote. Let me take you back some years. I am pretty desperate (because that’s what it takes for me to think that I cannot solve all my problems ALL BY MYSELF thank you very much). A [...]

Would You Vote For Jesus?

April 11, 2010

“Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your minds, so that you may discern what is the will of God…” Romans 12:2 Many Christians I know vote based on a single issue, usually abortion.  Now I don’t want to get into the pro-choice, anti-abortion debate.  I understand that [...]

God’s Grace On Easter And Always

April 4, 2010
E with Easter Egg Tree

I recently saw a small debate on Facebook about grace. The essence: What is God’s grace? What does grace mean? On Easter, God’s grace seems so very big.  ‘For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life.’ [...]

The Best Parent That I Could Be Was The One Walking Away

March 24, 2010
Late Enough

Parenting may kill me. Not literally (although my son’s around-the-neck hugs have gotten pretty tight). But there are moments that I can’t keep it up. The patience. The love. The joy. I just want E to listen. I just want N to sleep. I believe there are moms out there who are born for this. [...]
