Make a Decision

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood and I… …couldn’t decide. Even if you’re not familiar with Robert Frost, you probably know that’s not how the poem goes. But that newly edited version is a fine reflection of what my decision making process looks like. Not all of it of course. Let’s not fall under […]

The Call to Worship

I worship 24/7, 365 days a year (I can even outperform fitness centers that claim to be open all day every day). This includes holidays. Even the minor ones like Waffle Day, Winnie the Pooh Day or even National Hug Your Cat Day (it’s not so fun for my cat, but it’s great for me). […]

Life is Short, So Wait.

Its first debut comes in a more illusive form: ‘what do you want to be?’ Fast forward […]

Jesus’ Prayer

“Simon, Simon, behold, Satan demanded to have you, that he might sift you like wheat, but I have prayed for you that your faith may not fail. And when you have turned again, strengthen your brothers.” Luke 22: 31-46 If the world truly knew what lurked outside, every alert would be made to dispatch patrol […]
