Little Meditations: February 2013
http://littlemeditations.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 22, 2013. 8220;Simon Peter, when he saw it, fell to his knees before Jesus. “Master, leave. I’m a sinner and can’t handle this holiness. Leave me to myself.”. Luke 5:8; MSG). Shortly before this moment, Jesus, in an effort to better teach the eager crowd closing in on him, interrupted Simon in his work and had him put his boat back out in the water. I would like to be able to read of this interaction and the time in-between, but maybe it is better to imagine it. 8221; He summons all his ...

Little Meditations: January 2013

Wednesday, January 9, 2013. Certainly Not the Least. 8220;I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.”. Matt 25:40, NIV). Today I want to tell you about Michael. Could it be any coincidence he showed up shortly before the diocesan upheaval began? Today I pray that those who are seeking will be met with the grace and love that Michael found. May God lead them with open minds toward open doors and open hearts. Links to this post.

And if you can’t come to my church, I pray God will lead you to one like it. I’ve been blessed to experience many churches like my own in my travels – ...Today and all days,...

Thursday, March 20, 2014. Throw Open the Door. 8220;By entering through faith into what God has always wanted to do for us… We throw open our doors to God and discover at the same moment that he has already thrown open his door to us. We find ourselves standing where we always hoped we might stand – out in the wide open spaces of God’s grace and glory, standing tall and shouting our praise.”. Romans 5:1-2; MSG, para.).

Liberal religion with a little aloha. Ten years of writing. February 7, 2012 in Uncategorized. The labyrinth at Covenant. Over the next few weeks, as my ministry focuses on transition, I’ll spend my time recycling papers, packing boxes, meeting with people, sharing meals, preparing written material for the council, and so on. I won’t have the usual amount of time to spend on creative writing, so I am seizing the rare opportunity to revisit a few of my favorite pieces of writing. A minister's musings.

Liberal religion with a little aloha. A prayer for durban. December 6, 2011 in Uncategorized. View from an evening walk. I have been following the global climate talks in Durban, South Africa with intense interest. The coverage of the talks, when it can be found at all, casts our response to climate change primarily in political and economic terms. How will countries reach new treaty agreements? Will we find the political will to make the changes necessary before it is too late? Every action is a prayer.

Progressive religion with a little aloha. March 17, 2015 in Uncategorized. Watching the devastation that has followed the 2010 BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill, we do have a picture of what can happen to an entire region.
