Making Time About Something More Than Space
Like everything in Creation, God created us; you and me. Creatures crafted from clay and conceived through Divine breath. God commanding the nothingness to become somethingness.

Read MoreWhy Context is Critical and Intention is Everything
It’s a cold, gray and rainy day and I couldn’t be happier. This melancholy message might seem like a strange sentence to script, but I live in Vegas; and it’s been over 200 days since we’ve had rain; almost seven months. An ashen atmosphere dropping dust infused droplets on a hard and harsh habitat. Streetlights…
Read MoreWhy I Write: A Reminder to Myself
I never intended to spend my “retirement” years reflecting and writing about my faith and modern-day American culture.

Read MoreSo, This is Christmas at Fifty-Eight
I love the Christmas season. It’s a sensual spectacle for my soul. The yummy treats that appear only once a year, even if my appetite for them is a year-round event. The power of light to pierce the short December days and even longer December nights. The glorious music. The profane and holy, both speaking…
Read MoreHalf a Mile a Day
Like so much about my about past, I had wide opinions and narrow views about life. This included politics and people; aesthetics and art; food and fun. Like so much about my now, my life has been transformed through the power of God’s grace and unconditional love for all people; people like me and people…
Read MoreReflecting on My Father’s Passing and Our Last Conversation
This past week marks one-year since my father’s passing. I think about him often and I miss and love him.

My heart is filled with the…
