Easter is a special holy day for the church.

Easter gives us hope. Christ is Risen!

It was so wonderful to join Rev. Liam Miller on his 50th Episode of “Love, Rinse, Repeat” podcast to discuss the 7 Last Words of Jesus.

I shared my thoughts on “Father, forgive them for they do not know what they do”. It is a difficult passage for me, so I offer my simple understanding of these words in light of the coronavirus pandemic.

Happy Maundy Thursday and peace this holy week. Continue reading →

crossThis is a repost of my last year’s Huffington Post, “Jesus and the Cross“.
