Well … the end of another calendar year is in sight. I’m working on some posts right now … but I also got bit by a designing bug and I’ve got quilts coming out of my ears. Not literally, yet. But I have to get the ideas down, or I’ll lose them. [...]
It’s been in the news lately and creating quite a bit of debate over the status of churches. It was a simple request. A request from Caesar.
So, now then … how does the church respond? How do individuals respond? Are and should those responses be the same? Or, should they [...]
The other day I was cleaning the kitchen. It was a long and frustrating task. You’ve heard of people being color-blind? My family is trash-blind. They do not see trash. It is invisible to them; it blends into the flotsam and jetsam of all the stuff surrounding it. So [...]
In the movie, the Wizard of Oz, Dorothy has quite a bit to overcome. She is dropped into a strange land, with even stranger occupants and given a truly weird mission. She must find her way, alone at first and then with a couple of really oddball traveling companions: The Scarecrow and [...]
Erin (Decompressing Faith) and Lynn (Beyond 4 Walls) have organized a Synchroblog for today about prayer.

So here’s my list … in no particular order other than [...]
I count myself among the lucky ones. The lucky few. When I was young, certainly this was not on our agenda. It was not going to be our heritage. This became ours rather later in my life. I’m speaking of our summer home on the lake.
We call it “camp.” [...]
I don’t remember how old this ad campaign is. They all start to run together after awhile. Some of you may remember the Dr. Pepper ads … I think they ran in the late 1970’s judging from the look.
It’s very seductive. If you drink Dr. Pepper, you’ll have lots of friends; be [...]
Some of my favorite movies have always been westerns. I loved horses, cowboys and indians when I was girl. Now that I’m a grown up, I still love them. Only now I’m supposed to sophisticated about it.
