Lent is a time to draw closer to God, to seek His guidance, and to trust in His steadfast love and mercy.

The Christian way of life boils down to living in a way that reflects our allegiance to God’s kingdom of love, justice, mercy, and peace.

Lent is not merely a time for giving up, but a time for giving in – even when we believe that we know better than God.

St. David: Ink Drawing by Jonathan Edwards If you allow me to paraphrase Charles Dickens, by the time of St. David, Wales was going...

Jesus came to be the Light of the world, so the world can see Creation through God's lenses of love, mercy, and grace.

How precious is your unfailing love, O God!For you are the fountain of life, the light by which we see.

No good thing will the Lord withhold from those who walk with integrity.

If the Christmas story tells us something is that God is not afraid to come into the mess of our lives. 

Advent: The Season of Grace is upon us, a new and never-ending season.

Faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.

God has joined us together in Jesus Christ.  We are his brothers and sisters.  We are God’s family.  We are God’s care and concern!

Praying the Lord’s Prayer is just one more way in which we, human beings, can flesh out the God's incarnation in Jesus of Nazareth.

“I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me will never hunger, and whoever believes in me will never thirst.”

Anyone who would like to know more about God, should follow the scent of mercy and truth, of justice and peace. 

Hope encourages us to believe that out of what it may be considered the end of times, life and love will still flourish.

“Be strong, and do not fear, for your God, our God is already present working out the miracle of life in yearning-for-God hearts.”

God’s business, our business, the church’s business is to proclaim that God’s grace, love, and forgiving mercy.

Whether you believe it or not, God cares about you.  And his provision will never falter. 

The Eucharist is, indeed, a celebration of hopefulness.

Jesus is praying for us.  For you.  For me.  Even for those who couldn’t care less that Jesus is praying for them.
