Good morning... Many of you have shared with me fun photos of the light of the Lord filling your homes, and, drenched with multi-faceted meaning, the photo above felt like a gift to share. This ethereal image, light, airy, tenuous, came with a text: "Light of the Lord at my house this AM leading me out of my [...]
Good morning... He has made everything beautiful in its appropriate time. He has also put obscurity in their hearts so that no one comes to know the work that God has done from the beginning to the end (Ecclesiastes 3:11, MEV). "Imagine that you're unwell and in a foul mood, and you're driving through some lovely countryside," writes [...]
Good morning... In his message as a high school chaplain, recorded the day before Election Day 2020 and shared the day after all votes were cast, my husband Steve challenges us to asks ourselves, "What if? What if we have to live with people who don't think like us, believe like us, act like us, or vote like [...]
Good morning... The Results of an I-Centered Life is the title of Rick Warren's devotional message from October 28th, 2020. “When ‘I’ am at the center of everything in my life, that’s sin,” writes Rick. “We all have an 'I' problem: I want it my way; I will do my thing; I have to take care of myself first; [...]

Good morning... As we walked our dog along the bank of the Chattahoochee River, my husband told me about a Richard Rohr meditation that helped him visual prayer in a helpful new way. At my request, he shared with me Rohr's writing, and now I pass the important portion along to you. ****** Excerpt from Richard Rohr's morning [...]
Good morning... I was prayerfully hemming and hawing about a fairly insignificant decision. Though it was a small potato in the grand stew of life, still I wanted to choose wisely. I waited and waited until the surge of God's Spirit rose up to lead me to a pretty clear "Yes". It was a clear enough "Yes" for [...]
Good morning... One new opportunity brought on by COVID is that the Upper School chapel services led by my husband Steve are shared virtually on YouTube. I received many positive responses from this week's message, so I thought I would share Steve's thoughts with you. What do we do the day after God's binding love begins to unblind [...]
