Dear Sisters and Brothers, This past Sunday was Pentecost, and we proclaimed the good news that the Holy Spirit has been loosed upon the world, bringing about our rebirth into new life as daughters and sons of God, uniting us with the death and resurrection of Jesus in Holy…
Life in the Divine
Church, Part of the good news this past Sunday came from our Acts passage (17:22-34). Verse 28 says, “In Him (God) we live and move and have our being.” What does it mean for us to live and move and have our being in the Divine? In my…
It’s Still Easter, Church!
Dear sisters and brothers I think it’s fun that Easter is a whole season in the church calendar, not just one day. Easter is 50 days of reveling in the resurrection of Jesus and all that it means for us, going all the way to…
