This word is stuck in my mind. It is a real word and in fact, a very rare word. Most people use words like largeness, enormity, abundance, vastness, instead of bigness. After Hurricane Katrina, I made many trips down Beach Blvd. in Hancock County as I worked with my team of case managers, construction coordinators, […]
Some of my best days are spent walking in the woods with my camera. When I was about 15, I experienced the presence of God in a powerful way while walking the south rim of the Grand Canyon. Our family camped and so there were lots of woods and mountains, streams and lakes, and beaches […]
Matthew 28:1-10 After the sabbath, as the first day of the week was dawning, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the tomb. And suddenly there was a great earthquake; for an angel of the Lord, descending from heaven, came and rolled back the stone and sat on it. His appearance was like lightning, and […]
Matthew 27: 32-61 32 As they went out, they came upon a man from Cyrene named Simon; they compelled this man to carry his cross. And when they came to a place called Golgotha (which means Place of a Skull), they offered him wine to drink, mixed with gall; but when he tasted it, he would not drink […]
Matthew 27:1-31 27 When morning came, all the chief priests and the elders of the people conferred together against Jesus in order to bring about his death.

But Peter was following him at a distance, as far as the courtyard of the high priest; and going inside, he sat with the guards in order to see how this would […]
Matthew 26:31-56 Then Jesus said to them, “You will all become deserters because of me this night; for it is written, ‘I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.’ 32 But after I am raised up, I will go ahead of you to Galilee.” Peter said to him, “Though all become […]
Yesterday was Palm Sunday and we joyously entered the sanctuary waving palm branches while singing “Hosanna, Loud Hosanna.” We have begun our journey through Holy Week and Christ’s last days. I invite you to join me throughout this week read the scriptures and reflect upon this journey in the days ahead. Matthew 26:1-30 When Jesus […]
I am an amateur gardener: playing in the dirt is fun for me. As winter descends upon us bringing freezing temperatures, my colorful plants freeze and I begin the work of cutting back the frozen plants leaving bare spots and brown and gray stalks behind. When I drive through my neighborhood, I see homes […]
Therefore, as God’s choice, holy and loved, put on compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. Be tolerant with each other and, if someone has a complaint against anyone, forgive each other. As the Lord forgave you, so also forgive each other. And over all these things put on love, which is the perfect bond of unity. The […]
