I Wish You a Merry Christmas and a Spiritually Adventurous New Year
I wanted to wish you a merry Christmas and happy holidays, and a 2026 filled with growth and healing even in the midst of what may sometimes be a mess. I also wanted to thank you for reading my thoughts and so often responding. I cherish our conversations. My hopes for us in 2026 are simple but not easy: A closer growing friendship with God. A dynamic, adventurous spiritual life. Faith thatā¦

How Courage and Vulnerability Team Up to Transcend Fear
Courage defies easy definition and easy depiction. We rely on dramatic stories of bravery under fire or unimaginable sacrifice to tell us what true courage is. Courage, it is said, is being afraid and busting into the burning building to rescue the baby anyway. And this is true. But looking to the big and audacious for what courage looks like may leave us believing we lack courage.Ā While theā¦
The truth is that any given day serves a morsel of mourning along with a helping of thankfulness. In life, to taste only one is impossible--or delusion.

He Set a Table: A Thanksgiving Poem
The truth is that any given day serves a morsel of mourning along with a helping of thankfulness. In life, to taste only one is impossibleāor delusion. So it is that of the hundreds of funerals Iāve had the sad, sacred honor of presiding over, the 23rd Psalm has most often been the core text. It poetically speaks the hope of deliverance in the darkness, not deliverance from the dark. A table setā¦
When Life Hands You Lemons: A True but Sour Halloween Story
This day in history, circa 1964.Ā My two older sisters, Diane and Tina, dressed me in a āreally cuteā Blue Bonnet Girl costume for Halloween. I donāt recall having a choice in this. I was eight. I also donāt remember which one of them wore the costume before. Someone, my mom maybe, had meticulously hand-sewn the dress and bonnet. It was royal blue with white lace trim. They combed my dark hairā¦
Was It Meant To Be This Way? Sunday Psalm: A Poem Wrestling with the Art of Life and Death.
Editorās note: This is a prose poem, unlike my typical Sunday psalm. But it is still a prayer, though maybe harder to pray. I wrote it in response to how often Iāve heard this phrase uttered in the time of recent horrific events. It wasnāt meant to be this way. A brotherās blood fertilizing virgin soil, dark fingers of tangled weeds choking promise, wrapping death-tight vines round our necks. Itā¦
Last Rites: A Short Story About Death and Life
The old man slid his pack off his shoulders, and the sudden weightlessness nearly toppled him. He forced his tight mouth into a twisted smile, relishing the lightness that came as much from being surrounded once again by a wilderness he had somehow come to believe was home as from dropping his pack. The old man leaned his 30.06 against an aspen tree. He leaned there too. Loam, the smell of deathā¦
Sunday Psalm: For Fathers, the Fatherless, and Father's Day
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit: Ā Thank you for filling the world with glimpses of your goodness and grace. Your creation shouts your name. Even fatherhood reflects your glory. In your word you tell us to rejoice with those who rejoice. Today we rejoice in your gift of fathers. We are grateful that they have taught us everything from silly jokes to how to worship you, our heavenly Father.Ā Theyā¦

Sunday Psalm: My God, Why Have You Taken So Long?
On the cross, Jesus prays the first part of Psalm 22: āMy God, my God, why have you forsaken me?ā Itās the first stanza of a prophetic ātrouble and trustā psalm. Trouble and trust, meaning the psalmist laments in the first half, and lists Godās faithfulness in the second half. Verse 19 begins the expressions of trust. In verse 24, he affirms trust: āhe [God] has not hidden his faceĀ from him butā¦
He Is Risen: An Antidote for Holy Week and Easter Fatigue
HE IS RISEN! He is risen indeed. These are the beautiful, true words Iāve led congregations to affirm for over forty years. They are words that contain the story of my life of change. I would not be who I am without the truth that Jesus resurrected. These words are a holy liturgy. But the liturgy of Holy Week sometimes grows opaque, difficult to discern Jesus and the people he encounteredā¦
Sunday Psalm: A Beautiful Thing To Jesus
Todayās Sunday Psalm was inspired by Maryās anointing of Jesus at Bethany in Mark 14:1-9, Matthew 26:6-13, John 12:1-8, and possibly Luke 7:36-50. My Lenten practice as I write here has been to do beautiful things toJesus. The prayer is a reflection of that. I am pouring my heart and mind out directly and personally to Jesus. May it help you too, as Easter nears, to do a beautiful thing toā¦
What Does It Mean To Do a Beautiful Thing To Jesus? A Lenten Practice
Once upon a time, a woman named Mary interrupted a dinner party Jesus attended by breaking a vial of expensive perfume and pouring it on his feet (and possibly his head too). Just as would happen with one of our modern dinner parties, Maryās anointing of Jesus caused spiritual indigestion. They cloaked their confusion and discomfort with feigned indignation. āWhat a waste. We should have soldā¦
