The manna God provides is never tasty enough. God never lives up to your expectations. So silently or audibly you wish for an easier way.

I’m still piecing together fragments. I’ve spent my life collecting scraps of personal stories that will explain my father to me.

Ah, the New Year. It’s the stuff of resolutions. To be better. Do better. Live more healthful. And yet, year after year, we never quite change as much as we hope. Entropy is still a scientific fact.

There are so many paradoxes that we can appreciate as we seek to grasp more of the meaning of the miracle of Christmas.

Prepare yourself. You're about to be encouraged beyond all encouragement. Are you ready? Here we go…

People lamented that ancient paganism was dead, but the same people who profess that they would love an old pagan feast ignore Christmas, where the best of paganism has survived.
