Summer Memories: Love’s Journey This week marked a sad anniversary for me, but also reminds me of precious memories. Allow me to share a tale of three summers celebrating love’s journey . . . The Beginning of Summer Love I pretended to straighten the Frisbee...
The Loss of My Spiritual Father I wonder, back in New Testament times, how Timothy felt when he heard the news of the apostle Paul’s death? Did he mourn his own loss and the loss of countless others? Or did he rejoice that his spiritual father and mentor now...
In the Time You Gave Me Do you know how much time you have? Do any of us? We don’t. In the coming week, we will celebrate Thanksgiving Day. But this year, on that day I will also celebrate the birthday of someone I love who is no longer here. Can I do both on...
