When your words came, I ate them; they were my joy and my heart’s delight, for I bear your name, O Lord God Almighty.  Jeremiah 15:16

The Word of God is a feast.  As I spend time in the Word, I inhale the aroma of Christ, I am filled, I am sustained for the journey.  In this website, I share a few tastes of the banquet that have been especially meaningful to me.  My prayer is that this will nourish you and encourage you to serve yourself as well.

  • The Center
    You are not the center of the universe.  I mean that as an encouragement.  Seriously.  I’m not saying you act like you’re better than anyone.  What I see is that you sometimes take the weight of the responsibility of the universe on your own shoulders.  You don’t have to.  It’s not required of you.  In … Continue reading →
  • In – Dig – Nation
    Indignation.  I see it all around me.  And often in me.  And funny, when I parse it out – In-dig-nation – I think, “We truly are a nation that digs in.”  I don’t necessarily mean the United States, but our own “this is who we are” kind of nation.  We dig into our opinions, our … Continue reading →
