September 11, 2016: May God’s words alone be spoken, may God’s words alone be heard. Amen. I love my Apple watch. I do. I don’t NEED an Apple watch, it was a gift. It is not a necessity, but I do love it nevertheless. And one of the biggest reasons why? It helps me find…

August 28, 2016: May God’s words alone be spoken, may God’s words alone be heard. Amen. The words of our gradual hymn, that music we sing before and after the gospel, say “Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and its righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you.” That’s the first verse,…
August 21, 2016: May God’s words alone be spoken, may God’s words alone be heard. Amen. I have back issues. I mean sometimes, getting out of bed can be a pain – and I mean that literally. So, this story that we heard in our gospel lesson today, about the woman bent over for 18…

July 10, 2016: May God’s words alone be spoken, may God’s words alone be heard. Amen. Sometimes, it seems impossible to know what to say. The news of the past few days, and really, the past few weeks, have left my heart broken, my spirit wounded – I feel pained. I am in grief. And…I…
July 3, 2016: May God’s words alone be spoken, may God’s words alone be heard. Amen. What a storm we had Friday night, right? A tornado warning around these parts, and up where I live, we were without power for about 45 minutes. I swear, at one point, I saw an ark going by, and…
