Did you know… the plates in the earth’s crust are always moving slowly past each other? In California, they move about two inches every year. Things are always shifting… always changing whether we realize it or not! It’s just that some shifts are so powerful (seismic) that they cause the ground beneath us to literally […]
I have a theory that children and funerals tend to keep one humble—or at least set the stage for such to take place. Raising human beings and the prospect of dying have an abrupt way of reminding us that we’re not really in control. In the case of the former, parents have the responsibility of […]
I recently read a report from the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life. It further confirms the new realities facing Christians, churches, and church leaders, and it’s time that we all wake up and smell the blended faith! In a nutshell, it is a “build-your-own” approach to religion—much like building-your-own ice-cream sundae. A few […]

While we may pray for peace, we don’t actually envision peace in such a way that would require us to make a commitment toward justice and equality in our […]
The Netflix series, 13 Reasons Why has been getting a lot of attention lately. I’m watching it because I know a lot of teens are watching it. The basis of the show is Hannah, a teenage girl commits suicide and sends tapes to other students explaining why she did it and their role in causing […]

Not many Baptists “do” Lent. We have been called “liturgically challenged” by some—although more of us are beginning to embrace the richness of all the seasons of the Church Year. “Free church tradition” congregations have historically tended to leave the Season of Lent to the Catholics who want to practice a ritual of self-denial before […]
