  • Cats, God's Work, and Pure Hope - Hope Chronicles 9

    I have always thought of myself as a dog person. But a couple of years ago, I had a dog. I absolutely loved her. But after six months, it became clear that it wasn't working out. She - seriously - had anxiety. The vet ev…

  • Do You See Me?

    Well, it's been interesting working retail this holiday season. I know people are busy, but I've begun to wonder if people even notice the cashiers or the people working the floor to help them find that specific gift. I …

  • Tradition and Truth

    We're in the midst of an 11 week series at my church called "From Sex to Sexuality." It isn't really about the act. It is more about our identity as men and women. I spoke with a friend in leadership at the church today.…

    I don't have any wise thoughts today. More than anything I am humbled and contrite. Last night I began the process of cleaning up some sin with a couple of friends. It was really hard to do. I got to their house and just…

  • Take Hold
