A Radical Idea

Good morning... In researching the concept of radical empathy, I ran into the video below, a captivating video which puts flesh on the bones of a refreshing idea. This Sabbath morn, please enjoy this short video and wonder with God, "How might I be an integral part of Your healing solution?" My child, never drift off course from [...]

A Perfect Poem For Today

Good morning... "This poem plays beautifully with your post about radical empathy," she wrote. Remember? Radical empathy is "actively striving to better understand and share the feelings of others. To fundamentally change our perspectives from judgmental to accepting, in an attempt to more authentically connect with ourselves and others." I agree with my friend. This powerful poem plays [...]

Inching Our Way Forward

Good morning... After a very significant phone conversation, she wrote me a thought-provoking text.

Good morning... "Amazing post!" she emailed after yesterday's message, With A Heavy And Thankful Heart. "I needed it!" "I’ve been trudging through the valley these past weeks," she admitted.

When Love Wears Fur

Good morning... In yesterday's blog post, How To Avoid Burnout, together we witnessed the loving voice of God captured on my cell phone.

A Story From Steve

Good morning... "I was lounging on my couch on a beautiful Easter Sunday afternoon with the TV on, when the screen in front of me began to show one of the oldest and most beloved stories of our time," writes my husband Steve in his chaplain's devotional. "It was as much a part of my childhood as anything. [...]

Yield to Yield Abundantly

Good morning... One word sticks with me from this week's blog posts: yield. It strikes me that yield has a double meaning. The Free Dictionary tells us that to yield, on one hand, means to give up one's place to one who is superior, to surrender or to submit, to defer to or to concede. Day after day, we [...]
