While I like to write blogs that involve stories that aid spiritual growth, I find that pragmatism occasionally rules. When I write a book, I realize that if I don’t let people know it exists it will be of no benefit. I will get back to more “blog type” posts in the...
My life has changed in so many ways over the past few years. While the journey has often been painful, it is also refining, joyful, and rewarding. I pray the journey has made me a better person. Now retired and on my own, I have more available time, and I pray to use...
Part 1: Why did you decide at your stage of life to go back to school? As I look back, I honestly believe God was calling me to this new path. If you had told me ten years ago that I would be a doctoral candidate as I near my seventh decade of life, I would probably...
So, it’s that special time of year when we look forward to celebrating the incarnation…God in the flesh…the reason for hope. And what an incomparable gift this is. Hope is everything. To celebrate, we like to give gifts. Given that reality, I want to let you know...
