Episode 91. I Lost Someone Twice (who I am not done loving in Christ Alone) ...think about the emotional shards in your relationships that leave parts of your life broken, bleeding, splintered by conversations unspoken, dialogues that went downhill, moments and memories on hold, and for some, the abrupt call of mortality to cut it all short. Think …

Episode 90. I Rode the A Train to Eternity (a garden conversation at The Cloisters that stirred my soul) Earthly life teaches us what part we each have in the story of God’s Genesis. How we work through our mortality in God’s story about His eternity. And the one most jarring earthly collision with the soul, that feeling of spiraling isolation when…

Episode 89. Solus Christus. In Christ Alone (I am not alone). What “in Christ alone” means to me and how I fight it with the futility of my human nature. I know that sounds a little too weighty. Maybe this. I fight it with trying to help Christ save me. As if He did not. I think of “casting shade” as not living as if Christ has completed the story.…

Episode 88 When You Feel Like Jumpin’ Ship (honor the struggle of God’s work in You) Life is full of wanting to abandon the struggle. A struggle that is tethered to, grounded in, conversations, memories, love, respect, honor, collaboration, laughter, crying, caring, sharing the intimacy of human nature. I am talking about the human cargo in every r…

Episode 87. Obedience is the Path to God’s Presence and Provision (enough said) I think obedience is how we know God more deeply, how we connect to His presence. When He asks us to obey His commands, He is literally asking us to obey His nature. He created us in His image. This is a promise: that we take on His attributes when we do the things He d…

God’s Providence through His Presence (His nearness is the provision for my future) The corners I put God in, are because I only see in part. I corner God when I can’t understand His presence, His reach, His provision for my life. I put my timeless, eternal God in timeout. I won’t belabor this. When He asks me “Am I only a God nearby?” Even though …

Episode 85 ... do something from what you see. Do something for someone who needs more than they asked for... one time I helped get a spicy pepper product for a lady in a wheelchair at Costco, and when she said “this is the only pepper to use when frying chicken” I spent the next 15 minutes getting her recipe. Just time being with her, hearing abou…

Episode 84. Who is Willing to Consecrate Themselves to the Lord Today? (calling all broken spirits and cedar logs) Psalm 51:17 17 My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart you, God, will not despise. I am layer upon layer crazy about this... that the thing we can give to God through the agency of our free will, are the th…

Episode 83. I Sing to the Lord a New Song (wake up to His faithfulness) Turning our face toward God, toward Jesus, focusing on His faithfulness, is the best possible training for singing to Him. We are made in His image, so our faith comes from His faithfulness. When we look to Him for the lyrics to a new song every morning, and throughout our day,…

Episode 82. I Pray Beyond the Healing (my suffering is parenthetical to His Glory) So, what is so important to me, and for you, human, is to praise how God stabilizes us, so we can do His will for His glory. I pray every morning—because this is one of my diehard fears, that something like vertigo will stand in the way of His purpose for my life—so …

BUOY Episode 81. God Gives Me a Willing Spirit (when I bring my broken spirit to Him) Psalm 51: 11-12 11 Do not cast me from your presence or take your Holy Spirit from me. 12 Restore to me the joy of your salvation and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me. When I drift, I lose my joy. It’s the first thing to go... I remember having had it, I k…

Episode 80. .... It does mean we all make one binary choice. God, or man. God, or things, God, or fame. God, or fortune. God, or followers. Am I trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God? There is a timely moment in your life, human, when you decide to take that one-way all-in ride to your abbey, your purpose according to how your Creat…

Episode 79. What we want is often not what Jesus was sent to do. Or for the purpose for which He was sent. Jesus asks me to get clear, be honest about what is in my heart, be honest about why I am approaching Him. Jesus is not the Savior of our selfish purposes. He is the Savior of our selfish nature. Jesus is not the Lord of our self-proclaimed li…

It was just before the Passover Festival; Jesus knew that the hour had come for him to leave this world. He had just washed their feet, predicted his death for a final time, and predicted Peter’s denial three times before the rooster crows. (John 13) This was his last night with his disciples before his death. To comfort, to assure, to inspire, to …

The new covenant we have with God through His Son, lives in every moment. I love that God’s nature is timeless. That His presence doesn’t require a special day or a particular moment to do what He plans to do. He is always, constantly, going before me. Clearing a Psalm 139 path for my earthly ascent to a heavenly home. Jesus always “goes before and…
