Come In The Name of the Lord: The Secret Power of Palm Sunday
If you were God, you would have the means to make any entrance you want. No magnificent power play would be out of your reach. So why does Jesus choose riding across some branches and clothes on a donkey? Find out the power of that entrance and what it means for our lives today.

Grief and Joy
Easter’s power is around a cycle known well to all of humanity - Death, Waiting, Resurrection. Restated, we face loss, a loss followed by a time of uncertainty/ unknowing, a time in turn that gives rise to a surprising re-birth. Jesus walked that path with his disciples over Easter. We will walk it with God as well … a path of grief and a path of joy.

The Beauty in Finding God Again
We live in an age where skepticism is often given greater credence than faith. And something still yearns for that ‘link’ with God, to find that child-like beauty again. How can we find God again in the magical, not just the logical?

Finding Beauty in the World Around Us
Through the world around us we experience God. Through people, in things and in nature, He is with us. Many of us wonder how we can feel close to God, but what if it was impossible to be separated from Him? How can we come to see this in our everyday lives and begin to see Him everywhere, in everything?

The Beauty of Doing the Right Thing
The first place where we often experience awe in our lives is when we witness the moral beauty over the kindness, strength, courage and grit of others, a place where, as Toni Morrison phrased it, “we allow goodness its own speech.” We let it speak for itself. Often, we are left in awe at those who simply do the right thing.

You Are Not Alone
When we are connected to those around us, we are able to feel God’s presence in our lives. It’s through naming and sharing our struggles that we feel more connected to one another, and more connected to God. When we share our struggles out loud, they lose their power and we can draw strength from the knowledge that we are not alone, and that there are others who are walking alongside us on our journey.
