  • Holiness, Heart, & Hearth (CaD Deu 14)

  • The Knife, the Cradle, and the Cross (CaD Deu 13)

    Today’s chapter is jarring, especially at the beginning of the week of Christmas as I hum O Little Town of Bethlehem.

  • Land That Drinks Rain (CaD Deu 11)

    The message I found flowing through the chapter in the quiet this morning was that the danger is not rebellion or disobedience. The danger is forgetting. A chapter-a-day podcast from Deuteronomy 11. The text version may always be found and shared at tomvanderwell.com.

  • Stiff-Necked, Still Chosen (CaD Deu 9)

    In the quiet this morning, sentimental twinkle-light memories get balanced with the sobriety of zakhor memories. Moral memory isn’t shame, it’s schooling.

    7 min
  • The After-Meal Blessing (CaD Deu 8)

    Many years ago I memorized Deuteronomy 8:10. I began quietly quoting Deuteronomy 8:10 to myself as a post meal blessing. I didn’t know it, but I had stumbled upon what Jewish tradition calls Birkat HaMazon. A chapter-a-day podcast from Deuteronomy 8.
