My father wrote a book titled “The Man Called Jesus.” I was thinking of his story from the perspective of the thief on the cross, as well as the exchange between him and Jesus from the cross. My study with Kristi McLelland emphasized the “we culture” in the early Church and the importance of viewing holiness in…

Finding Peace in the Present: A Bike Ride Reflection
Riding our bikes is a place of peace and a time to slow down. The smooth hum was instantly lost to the air.

Finding Healing and Hope in Prayer and Friendship
My current Bible study author noted that journaling is a way to share God‘s faithfulness.
