The Spring of Lemon Tart

On tarts and why I hate the quote “Don’t cry because it’s over; smile because it happened.”

My strange wishes for Year 26.

A Holy Week reflection on waiting for Easter hope.

Class of 2020: I know this story has taken a turn that none of you expected.

For the teacher learning new ways of educating. And for the ones grieving the loss of any opportunity to teach at all.

“To honor human creativity is to honor God, for God is the Heavenly Maker of that maker.” —Sir Philip Sidney

For the pastor, elder, deacon, staff member, campus missioner, and others who serve the Church during a pandemic.

Encouragement for when heavy feelings do not keep a polite distance.

Just being around, doing the things that no one sees, going even when you’re tired, is nothing short of remarkable.

Thoughts one week in.
