Snakes and Sharing

A few days ago I rounded the corner on the back porch and a very thin but VERY long snake was slithering its way across the deck.   After I jumped on the couch (which, in hindsight, was completely irrational because it was at least ...

Is God’s name “Howard?”

For some, God’s name is “Howard.”   “Our Father, who art in heaven, Howard be thy name.”   Or at least that’s what Anne Lammot wrote in her book, “Help. Thanks. Wow.” Someone confided to her that for years, they ...

What if prayer is all you have to give?

  As I hope you are aware, we have a campus in Kigumba, Uganda. It is led by four young men, Dero, Mawejje, Philip, and Farid. Despite being on the other side of the globe and all the challenges that brings, they are committed ...

What’s the last message you tell folks?

When I became an associate pastor at Williamson’s Chapel, my job was to visit the shut-ins, (Folks who could not leave their homes or nursing facilities).   It was one of my first visits, the hour was drawing to an end, I stood up to ...

Do you like to take a bath?

Some friends were contemplating buying a new house and they were adamant the new house had to have a nice bathtub. One home only had showers, so they got quotes on reconfiguring a bathroom to include a tub one could “soak” in. As ...

What’s Your Stance?

Good Friday

When I was in seminary, some of my classes would be 9 hours in duration, giving an hour for lunch. That's a long time for any of us to sit still. To pass the time I'd draw boxes on my paper and every five minutes color them in. When there were ...

Are you willing to embrace the pattern?

Do you like patterns? For some, it's a fun challenge to identify a pattern, figuring it out. For others it's a nuisance and unnecessary. Whether we like patterns or not, they are undeniable in life. And as we evolve as a species we learn ...

Are you doing anything that makes your stomach hurt?

My stomach is a great gauge of my anxiety. Anytime anything difficult is going on, there is truly a "pit" in my stomach. Ever have that feeling? How does your anxiety manifest itself? When Jesus began his ministry, the focus was on ...

Riding Into the Storm

Sometimes we can prepare for storms. Like snow in the south . . . you know there is a hint of it coming weeks ahead of time. Then, it is breaking news leading into it, during it, and then reports following, as well. There is a mad rush to ...

Egging as an Altar

First off, THANK YOU! Holy cow the ways you were "the church" last Sunday! Whether you supported it financially by buying off the Amazon wishlist, through your generosity and offerings to West, or by egging kid's houses, you made a difference. ...
