This is an excerpt from Spring Clean: Devotions for Lent, Day 27. It also "happens" to be the text on which my pastor spoke in church yesterday, as well as the Bible story that moved my heart to become a Jesus-follower when I was a child. Presented here today with prayers and hope for healing in us all, this Holy Week and ever forward.
The seasons give us structure and remembrance and rhythm, but redundancy is a red flag...
Friendly reminder for the 4th Sunday of Advent—Peace (arriving "late" because I happen to be sick today...so it's perfect.
'Tis the season to prioritize your mental health...and support your favorite indie author at the same time. 🙌🏼🌟
Happy Easter! In which we take a deep (contextual) and wide (for all times) look at Psalm 40 and its applications.
In which I reflect on Fiddler on the Roof and its parallels to the Bible story of Jephthah's daughter
In which we take a deep (contextual) and wide (for all times) look at God's cryptic but centering answer to Job.
In which I anticipate the coming solar eclipse with eagerness, contemplation, and affirmations for us all.
In which I sift through my Holy Week roles over the years and thank God for the story's formative power in me.
In which I learn - and feel - something new within the Parable of the Compassionate (Good) Samaritan
