  • You Won’t Like Me When I Am Angry

    In Ephesians 4:26, 27 it says “‘Be angry, and do not sin’:do not let the sun go down on your wrath, nor give place to the devil.”  This is a verse that I have had to remind myself of more frequently in the past few years than I ever have before.  In general I am…

  • F.E.A.R. the Truth

    In this video I do my best to to put into words the frustration that I am experiencing in this moment realizing that I do not have the words to convey the Love I believe is Present for each and every one of us.  When I look at the world today I see people living for the…

  • A Forgiveness Prescription

    “Just forgive it.”  That’s something we try to tell our daughter Calista whenever something upsets her.  We don’t expect that it makes too much sense to her at three years old, but the hope is that if she hears it enough it will start to work its way into her consciousness and eventually she will…

  • No One Can Make What God Has Created

    My friends do you trust in the reality of your true being?  Jesus taught that the person that lives within you is greater than the one seen by the world.  How often do you let that person within you see the light of day?  For many of us it is not often enough.  For a…

  • Winning and Losing

    Matthew 13:12 – For whoever has, to him more will be given, and he will have abundance; but whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him. Have you ever had dreams of winning it big?  Wow!  Imagine what you could do with more.  It would be awesome.  If you…

  • Warriors In Unseen Worlds

    Ephesians 6:12-20 — “Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers…

  • The Light Is Everywhere

    Have you ever noticed how the deepest love songs always sound like they could be sung to God whether it was clearly the artist’s intent or not.  My uncle pointed that out to me when I was a little kid and I have never forgotten it.  A lot of times when I am trying to…

  • A Thief and a Liar (Shine)

    Is there anything in your life that you would give absolutely everything to?  Can you even imagine such a thing?  There used to be a time when I felt like I could absolutely give myself to whatever I set my heart to.  My heart was disciplined to Love and my belief was that I had…

  • In It, Not Of It

    Every once in a while I get this feeling that comes over me where I feel like I just want to quit trying to live my ideal.  I start thinking about how much love is in my heart and how difficult it has been for me to find an expression that translates universally and it hurts. …

  • The Business of Being Equal

    One of my passions is Diversity and Inclusion.  Of all the work available in the world, at this point in my life, I feel like this space is one where I can serve best . My story sounds like something out of a diversity handbook.  Born to a multi-cultural family, very early on I dealt with issues that tend to separate…
