Midweek Lenten Devotional Week 6

Then Jesus went with them to a place called Gethsemane; and he said to his disciples, “Sit here while I go over there and pray.” He took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be grieved and agitated. Then he said to them, “I am deeply grieved, even to death;... Continue Reading →

Romans 12:2-12 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—what is good and acceptable and perfect.

Midweek Lenten Devotional Week 4

Sunday, for our worship, I talked about prayer and how it connects us to God and to each other. Our scripture is from the book of Mark, Chapter 5:24-34 [A] large crowd followed him and pressed in on him. Now there was a woman who had been suffering from hemorrhages for twelve years. She had...

My Mom

So, it is this beautiful lady's birthday (no, not mine or DD's, my mom's) and so I'm taking to my blog to brag on her a bit. I couldn't have asked for a better mother.  She taught me so much in life.  She taught me how to be a good mother, a wife, and a... Continue Reading →

Wisdom Shouts in Street

Here is a rough transcript of my homily from worship this morning.  The video was more of a service with prayer time and readings but it ended up weird because I was trying not to be too loud because of people sleeping in the next room so instead of sharing the video here, I’m sharing...

Making the best of it

Wow, I just knew I’d be back over here in a day or two after my last post but then things went wonky. I started trying to decide whether our little churches should continue to meet on Sunday mornings.  We are a predominately elderly (over 70) congregation but we are also very small. I had...
