Eleven Words

Have you ever had one of those times when you felt like no matter what you did, no one was thankful or appreciative of the amount of effort it took to do what you did? Maybe at some point in your life you took on a project that took all your ability to think about how it would affect you emotionally, spiritually, and…See More

We Are Not a Sin

First let me just say after a power flicker while in the middle of writing this blog, the term “Jesus saves” has new meaning for me this morning. I want to say to my sisters and brothers in the LGBTQIA community who have been so battered and beaten by the religious establishment, especially those of the Christian…See More
