Hidden Figures tells the story of Katherin Jonson, Dorothy Vaughan, and Mary Jackson - brilliant African-American women working at NASA who served as the brains behind the launch into orbit of John Glenn.
This ultimately ...
We show up for what we are committed to! What do that look like for you?
Honestly, we show up for what we are committed to.
Last Sunday, I was driving home around 1:30 pm.
I drive by 2 churches on my way home, and frankly, there’s been more than one occasion I have had “church envy.” Parking lot w/ lots of cars ...
Is Procrastinating Really a “temptation?” Even though we don’t like to admit it, it is.
Is procrastinating really a "temptation?"
We typically think of "bad" things when we think of temptations. (Like the ones listed in yesterday's meditation).
But what if temptations actually plague us more than we know?
When Barna Group ...
The more serious the temptation…. the less we admit to it.
The more serious the temptation, the less we admit to it.
Ten years ago, Barna released a survey exploring the new realm of temptations. Sure, that loaf of bread we want or the dessert we gave up for Lent still calls our name, but temptations ...
It was the best of times . . .
Remember that quote from A Tale of Two Cities?
(Actually, I didn’t. I had no clue where it came from; I’ve just always heard ‘It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.’)
And I’ve always known that to be true.
Have you ever ...
Managing Your Junk
Do you ever have a tendency to lose things?
You know you "once had it" but you haven't seen it in quite some time, so it's easier to consider it lost than to go digging around for it.
Especially if the places we need to go digging ...
Leave it!
Tom and I recently adopted a dog named Mitzi from the Humane Society.
We’ve known we wanted a German Shepherd dog friend for Axel for a while, but a puppy was not on our radar.
Until a friend who volunteers at the shelter sent me a picture ...
The Pit in Our Stomachs Tells us something!
What gives you that pit in your stomach?
That feeling of knowing that SOMETHING is wrong and the odds are that you've caused it!
There is either something that you should NOT have done or . . . . there was something you were supposed to do, ...
The Cross Levels Us
The cross levels us.
No, it doesn’t “knock us down,” . . . but it levels us.
It makes us all equal.
And today, we all stand getting a glimpse of the cross. It’s off in the distance, not really looming upon us (yet), but it is still ...
There’s no way this makes sense…
I was driving home from the office yesterday and noticed a unique decal on the back of a truck's window diagonally in front of me.
I could tell it was supposed to spell out something because one of the letters looked like a "V," . . . but ...
The countless hours of practice and intentionality… In all aspects of our lives.
I started taking piano at 4 years old. My fingers honestly weren’t big enough to learn to play, but I wanted to so badly that my family gave in, got me a teacher, and the hell began.
It looked so fun at first, one’s fingers moving across the ...
The Mystic and our pathway…do they intersect?
Yesterday I had the privilege of meeting with a colleague from Savannah. (Which is why the e-news is later today, the weather was atrocious so I ended up stopping/staying on the drive back).
Jesuit Fr. Karl Rahner said, "If Western ...
