  • S.3 Episode Eight: Deer Surprises

    In finding myself surrounded by a group of deer, I had a quick decision to make. And, I hope it's the same one we make any time we encounter God.

  • S.3 Episode Seven: I Couldn't Have Done It Without You

    While working as a hospital chaplain, I awkwardly held hands with a woman as she grieved in front of her husband's hospital bed. I didn't think I was doing anything spectacular, but I learned I supported her more than I thought.

  • S.3 Episode Three: The Need to Be Replanted

    I don't have the greenest thumb nor do I enjoy gardening. But when I started a garden a year ago, I was amazed at how much it made me think we all need to be replanted at times.

  • S.3 Episode Two: Good One, God

    While living in New York City, I visited the Body Exhibit. My best friend who went with me had a drastically different experience than I did. However, how we viewed the exhibit changed how I saw everything.

    I once worked at a regional theatre in Tennessee performing Shakespeare's Twelfth Night. In rehearsal one day, a sacred and beautiful thing happened. It was the best performance.

  • S.2 Episode 32 - Practice the Contemplative Season Finale

    On this, the season two finale, I encourage us to practice the contemplative in order that we might discover the Divine. 

    If you want to become more connected, more aware, less anxious, less distracted, then practice the contemplative.

    If you want a faith that is rekindled, a healing balm for your wounded soul, a life that is transformed, then practice the contemplative. 

    This will be the last episode in Season Two, but I have dreams and hopes for Season Three, which will be short stories and reflections on how to discover the Divine in all things all around us. 

    Yes, I said short. None of this 2-hour podcast interviews (who's got time for that). Instead, just a story that I hope will allow you to discover ways in which God is nearer to you than you could hope. 

    I'll be taking a bit of time to write and compile those episodes and will be back soon. Until then, subscribe, share, and leave a review of the podcast!
