I feel the need to pause and restart this thing again (again and again) and hopefully sustain the momentum of regular posting. As much as I...

I never realized how much of an addiction knitting could become. Ever since I've decided to take these skills more seriously back in Dec...

I've neglected this thing for far too long. I tend to forget that blogging really is a spiritual exercise for me and so I am resurrecti...

I am alive. That seems to be a theme in my most recent postings (oh, wait...what recent postings?) I've decided I need to get back int...

Day 1 of the UMC Young Clergy campaign to pray for the United Methodist Church begins today. You can follow these 40 days of prayer on the ...
