Shavuot craft
We are midway through counting the omer in preparation for Shavuot! During Shavuot, we celebrate YHVH’s blessings during the wheat harvest. In the Torah, we are told to wave a loaf in thanksgiving. And we love to let everyone take part in feast days. But I don’t want to give a loaf of bread to […]
Who is your God?
Often circumstances can overwhelm us, or I see something disturbing on facebook. Doug will see something on the news and we get a bit scared. We have taken to asking each other a very simple question. Who is your God? Immediately we are encouraged. Why? First, we know who our God is not. He is […]
Eating and Living
I had a dream last night, of which I have vague recollections of images of Mr. Rogers, and a phrase that I cannot forget. I have learned to take notice of things in dreams that seem etched into my mind. Perhaps they were in my dream for a reason. Well, I woke up with this […]
Embrace today

Our children are grasping truths, and sitting still during the seder lol! I’d like to share a few highlights from […]

Opening the Word – Phil 2:1-4
So if there is any encouragement in Christ, any comfort from love, any participation in the Spirit, any affection and sympathy, complete my joy by being of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind. Do nothing from rivalry or conceit, but in humility count others more significant […]
Radios and health
