It’s nearing the end of the 31 days of reflection. I’m not sure how much true reflecting got done. This has been a busy month, that’s for sure. I moved across town, which is to say that I moved about a mile or so from where I was living. I now live in a household [...]

Day 23 – Courageous Covenant People
Our little church, Open Door, ahs been going through a video series by Danny Silk called Honor Among Us. It’s about being a covenant people. I’m not really sure what to think of it yet. There is more discussion going on each week and there are only 2 more weeks left of the series. This [...]

Day 3: Letting Go
I have a hard time letting go. I’ve been known to hang on to anger long after I’ve forgotten why I was angry in the first place. All I know is that I was right in being angry. I have fought about something even when I’ve realized I’m wrong. I’m hoping that I’m not like [...]

A Letter to Rich Mullins
Dear Rich, I remember the first time I heard one of your songs. It was October 12, 1992. I was at the Great Commission School giving my testimony that morning. I told of my brokenness, abuse, rebellion, and my choice to follow Jesus. I was young, naive, and overly sensitive. A crazy funny smelling guy [...]

My People
Yesterday I was talking to my friend Levi about church earlier that day. He said that when he looked around he saw us as family, as dysfunctional one at that. I laughed and said, “That’s because that’s what we are!” We’re all hurting, broken, searching for something, and desiring to belong somewhere. Our church is [...]

3 years ago today…
2008 was a very difficult year for me. This time back then I didn’t want to get out of bed. My friends were so good to me. They’re still so good to me. I read the following post and feel all emotional. I remember the pain so clearly, yet it’s a memory. As I sit [...]

Kindness Leads to Repentance
I woke up with a song already playing in my head, “How You Forgive Me”. It’s on the Enter the Worship Circle: Third Circle album. I searched Youtube for the song, but could only find the cover. My friend, Rebecca, and I were talking about our thoughts about raising our children. I have been taking [...]

Learning
I learned something about myself today. I’m not sure if it’s a new realization or maybe just a deeper one. Sometimes I’ll go along feeling perfectly confident in an area of my life. Not worrying about it at all, in fact, I’m even enjoying it. Then all it takes is for one person to question [...]

Deep Thoughts
Well, I’m not sure that they’re all that deep. I just find titles intimidating. I wonder if I’ve used one too many times and that everyone is aware of that fact except me. Several Mondays have passed & I have forgotten to post my gratitude list. I ended on #27; I’m currently at #66. I [...]
