“From the rising of the sun to its setting, the name of the Lord is praised” – Psalm 113:3 During the summer of 2019, I served at a nonprofit mission camp in Tennessee. I worked to serve the Lord, serve the people in the Cumberland Plateau, and the v…

A thrill of hope: More snow

News | November 30, 2020

News | November 29, 2020

Rekindle the spirit: Watching the fire

News | November 24, 2020

My dad planted a tree in my yard, not too long before he died, though I can’t recall the exact timeframe. It was special, just one connection to him; and while the tree did fairly well for the last 12 years or so, it was struggling recently and was c…

Singing each other’s names

Pastoral Messages | November 18, 2020

As I write this, I can hear my kids doing remote school with their amazing teachers here in Davenport (Thank you, teachers!). I am continually distracted by the unexpected joy of my third-grade daughter learning multiplication through a screen. It tu…

Confidence

Pastoral Messages | November 12, 2020

If you were to step into the kitchen right now and bake a cake from scratch, how would you rate your skill as a baker? What about your coordination for catching a ball? Or your talent for dancing? How would you evaluate the level of your compassion?…

Health workers and COVID-19: Cal Atwell

News | November 12, 2020

For as long as Cal Atwell remembers, he wanted to be a doctor. He grew up in Annawan, Illinois, where he was friends with the son of the local physician. Forty years into his career as a surgeon, he still loves what he does. During the pandemic, his…
