The Order of Things
The Creation account is a manifestation of the order of God. There is an alternating sequence between separation and production. The liturgical calendar of the Church is a manifestation of God’s holy order. Disciples of Christ, how is that order reflected in our lives? How is the order of things in our lives an image…

Do Not Leave Us Comfortless
Have you ever felt ‘ghosted’? You’ve been calling, IM’ing, even emailing and DM’ing, but there has been no answer from the other person – not even an acknowledgement.

Which One are You?
God answers prayers, this we know. If we tell ourselves otherwise might it be because we approach God with the answer already in mind so that we are blinded to God’s response to our prayers? In this week’s piece, I examine the difference between Abram (father of our faith) and Nicodemus, who approached the light…

Revelation
We are called to be lights in a dark world. Let your light shine: retreat to receive the revelation of God’s word; retreat and allow God’s Word to transfigure you.
