The broken pieces of our lives combine to make the most beautiful masterpiece.

When Something Need to Break

This series is a bit more difficult for me to write than the others. Through the Bible is the backbone of this blog, the original conceit. The Bible vs Sunday School is a secondary series with entries written as I encounter passages that seem to conflict with what I was taught, and Pieces of Me … Continue reading When Something Need to Break →

It’s Weird, I Tell You

Ok, so here's the thing. Worship is weird. Church is weird. Everything about Christianity is weird. It isn't just going about your life and getting through the day, looking for ways to enjoy yourself. It's more than practicing spirituality and seeking peaceful enlightenment. For those of you that have been in it your whole life, … Continue reading It’s Weird, I Tell You →

Lessons from My Crepe Myrtle

So I wish I were a gardener. I really do. My great grandmother and my grandmother both had green thumbs and were great with plants and gardens. I just want to be able to have a nice looking yard, you know, something they call ‘curb appeal.’ I want to drive up to my house and … Continue reading Lessons from My Crepe Myrtle →

When other people break us

We can do our best. We can be totally surrendered and open to God’s leading. We can pack and go when he sends us, where he sends us. We can get everything right, and still wind up broken and off course. We interviewed at a church clear across the country. It would be a difficult … Continue reading When other people break us →

Waiting

I have felt called to speak since I was in college, almost 20 years now. I have never had a platform to speak from. Even if we hadn’t moved around too much for me to develop a ministry position that would grow out of the local church into regional retreats and national conventions, I haven’t … Continue reading Waiting →

Timing

One of the problems we have, so very often, is understanding God’s timing. Or why he sometimes says yes and often says no. But here’s the thing: I have a handful of broken pieces with pretty sharp edges. I really want God to fix the thing that broke (if not stop it from breaking in … Continue reading Timing →

Resources

Just a quick word about resources. If you're going to go about the business of examining, understanding, and deepening your faith, you're going to need quality resources. Sermons. Devotionals. Bible studies. Teachers. Commentaries. These are all pieces we use to construct our understanding of Scripture. Some people are so intimidated by the Bible that they … Continue reading Resources →

Take 2…

Hello again. This is a post I almost didn't write. So very close to the opening of this space, a slight gap in publication dates will hardly be noticed. There are two generous souls following me at the moment, and to them I would like to apologize and explain. More than that, though, the delay … Continue reading Take 2… →

Pieces of the Mosaic

Welcome to my home. We make the most of what we have, here. Old items get repurposed; yard sales and thrift stores a regular habit. Our home is more...eclectic comfortable than it is stylish, but we like it. I didn’t always. I’ll be honest. I used to long for a well designed home with coordinated … Continue reading Pieces of the Mosaic →
