It’s really interesting. And I’m talking about those things, in life, that repeat even when you least expect them. And then, other things, that should repeat, don’t. I read a passage in Paul’s letter to the Philippians, early this morning, and it made me aware of something he did that I don’t do. And it has to do with Christian love.

You and I have the capacity for understanding by design. Let that sink in. Because that (seemingly) simple 4 syllable word is a key part of how we’re different from the animals and birds and fish.

Well, back in medieval days, when I was growing up, … Read the rest…
After talking about my former pastor, yesterday, I thought about how that story ties in nicely with what I’d like to share with you now. And it’s about what happens when things get dark.
