Life is too short to not be myself…
This advent I’ve been preaching on Joy – hopeful joy, loving joy, unabashed joy, and today will be peaceful joy. Hopeful joy – I shared how we can find hope and joy in the most unexpected places. I had a memorial service the day before and so I was able to share how even in... Continue Reading →
Yes, silly as it sounds, that is exactly what I have been trying to do. Disconnecting from technology some so that I can reconnect... with nature, with family, with God, with myself!

I visited with several people yesterday all in different stages of failing health and I realize that I don't want to take my own health for granted. My patient husband. He wasn't...
