Best of all

Pastoral Messages | August 16, 2018

If someone were to ask me to tell them about grace, I’d probably try to explain it. I might talk about love that is unearned and unexpected. Or maybe I’d borrow from the apostle Paul who wrote how grace is unearned, a pure gift of love. Or I’d quote…

A sense of humor

Pastoral Messages | August 9, 2018

When my two grown kids surprised me with a visit home last weekend, we got in a game of tennis. It was a blast. Depending on which of the four of us you ask about the game, however, four different perspectives will emerge. Mom’s shots were awesome. O…

Not so ordinary time

Pastoral Messages | August 1, 2018

Creating hope

News | August 1, 2018
