Mind, Body & Soul

Much like understanding the qualities of God in three distinct persons, we sometimes separate ourselves into three persons attempting to better understand our human experience. How do we balance the health of mind, body & soul?

Food, Clothing, Shelter

This triad of needs is often what we consider the essential provisions for life.? What is it like to go without one or more of these essentials?? What are the effects of never going without?

Stick Shifts & Safety Belts

You Will Be Called Sons & Daughters

Jesus? use of familial terms to describe people who have deeper connections to him than blood illustrate the broad implications of ?family.?? An exploration of adoption and parenting as redemptive acts.

Things of Value

One person?s treasure is another person?s trash: this could be said of both an archive of old magazines in a cluttered living room or a commitment to God in a suffering world.? How do we determine the things, tangible and intangible, that have value to us?

So what about faith and music?
