It is that time of year when people dress up in old curtains tied with rope, or white sheets with silver tinsel, or in burger king crowns carrying gold-wrapped empty boxes. I think my niece got her first nativity experience dressed as a sheep, one of my daughters gets to be a wise man, and …
Our faith depends on our engagement with Jesus, our creator. If we maintain a sense of his ongoing presence with us—and respond accordingly—our faith is alive and well. As a reminder, faith is always transitive as our bond with Jesus. He is our partner in spiritual faith as he engages us and we respond to …
When Zechariah walked out of the temple, all he could do was wave his arms around and gesture. He couldn’t get a peep out of his vocal chords. But what would he have said, if he could? I think he would have had three things to say, and each one better than the one before. …
