  • More Than A Place

    More Than A Place

    This week I received a group text saying that church is closed for the next two weeks. I don’t remember the last time church was closed, but if it helps prevent the spread of the coronavirus, then so be it. While I am in awe about what things are coming down to, I’m striving not…

  • Liberation from Fear

    Liberation from Fear

    Recently I started keeping a dry erase board on my refrigerator to leave motivational words and wisdom for myself throughout the week. At first I was not sure what to put until my girlfriend suggested a poem that she says her her mother enjoys. The poem is entitled Our Greatest Fear, written by Marianne Williamson.…
