Anger
Unrequited Anger Erupts in violence. Like a steam engine With no release No valve to give it rest No work to ease the stress The steam and gases build Expand until the rivets… POP! Exploding parts and plates In every direction Without discretion And bring destruction To those in witness. So it is That anger […]
Our Guiding Star
Lost on a sea of ambivalence We have settled in the vast darkness, Bobbing anchorless on vast seas Devoid of Hope and filled with questioned prophecy. Smothered in a wintry woolen coat of Spanish Moss Masquerading as sullen clouds That devour the light and never sets it free. Obscuring the moon And hiding the stars […]
The Wonder of Dawn
I gaze with wonder upon the dawn Red upon orange upon blue Passive pinks and magenta hues, Sun peeking over the edge of the landscape Painting the clouds with lavish iridescence Moving my soul to awe and repentance. I cannot pretend that I understand The essence and wonder of our Creator, His palette and brush […]
Gifts
by Rev Walt The small boy had a smile that was as wide as the river that ran north of town. A gentle spring breeze whisked his brown hair about his face and his eyes sparkled in the morning sun. Freckles danced across his nose in a dervish of youthful candor. He was lean, but […]

I find the rhetoric of hate… exhausting. The endless pages of disinformation The countless contradictions The hyper-distortion of facts And the mountains of untruths Generated by professional purveyors Of undocumented and distorted Non-contextual discourse.

Finding Joy In Lent (series)
Lent can be a somber time for many of us as out thoughts turn to Easter and the cross. But it really shouldn’t be that way. Jesus is our constant companion in all of our trials and triumphs and there is always joy to be had when we reflect on what is truly important. This […]
Limitless (series)
This series of five messages celebrates some of the women in that Bible that we would consider limitless. In other words, They did not let a man’s world define who they were or what they could accomplish. They broke through the glass ceiling and revealed to us the tenacity, strength, and faith of women. Their […]

Angels provide us with encouragement, understanding, compassion and are often the messengers that fill in the gaps of our stories to make them complete. Join us as we explore Christmas as God sends angels to give […]
