15 Mar Traditions and Faith Traditions go back to the start. When Jesus preached, there was usually food and feasting at some point. He would gather his apostles around a table and break bread. He would win over their hearts once their physical needs have been met. He would drink with them and eat with them. I've spoken about traditions previously. What traditions do you have? Traditions have a way of strengthening relations, healing old wounds, drawing folks together and making everlasting memories. They do not have to

20 Apr The journey is all part of the process I have been thinking about something. What is the whole point of life is the journey? What if THAT is the purpose of life? The journey?

16 Mar Onwards and upwards.... I'm back! After a long leave of absence. The last 6 months has been super hectic. Between the children, work, running home and life, I feel like I've barely had time to breathe. Unfortunately, I feel like I've slipped away from my faith.

Life is tough and draining and I feel like I'm still trying to figure this out.
