God’s time IS time
Just a quite whisper from the Revelation reading this morning about time – God’s time – from this verse: 8:1 When the Lamb opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour. 2And I saw the … Continue reading
Made in God’s image inside and out
Today’s post is a re-post – one I wrote earlier this year but didn’t publish here on this blog. It was written before I began to edit my reflections to shorten- so I apologize for the length and rambling nature … Continue reading
No John Wooden, but a winning coach nonetheless
16 While Paul was waiting for them in Athens, he was deeply distressed to see that the city was full of idols. I have come to realize that I push back at many of Paul’s teachings to the church because I see … Continue reading

1 Praise the Lord! O give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; for his steadfast love endures for ever.
This is a reflection I posted last year at Thanksgiving. I returned to this post this morning because I was awakened with a familiar first thought that led to a question. Am I where I am supposed to be on … Continue reading
Paul’s letters and the Gospel, the Holy Spirit as editor
