Little Things

Pastoral Messages | October 15, 2025

Several weeks ago, as the back-to-school season approached, I was reminiscing about family summer vacations over the years. One of the standout favorites was a mid-summer trip to northern Minnesota. I was in my early teens when my parents, sister, an…

Theology where?

Pastoral Messages | October 9, 2025

Thinking ahead from writing this, I realize that many of you will be reading it on the day it comes out in St. Paul’s e-News, when we also have one of our Theology Pub outings. That St. Paul institution is one I inherited when I arrived in 2019. I to…

Pastoral Messages | October 2, 2025

Nap and a snack

Pastoral Messages | September 17, 2025

On March 23, 2011, my basement flooded. I know the date because it was my wife’s birthday. A flooded basement is NOT a good birthday present, by the way.  At the time, Malie was teaching for an online high school and, living in a split-foyer house, h…

Elephant instincts

Pastoral Messages | September 10, 2025

Chips and challenges

Pastoral Messages | September 4, 2025
