“Who is my neighbor?” An expert in the Jewish scriptures asked Jesus one day. It’s a question we might ponder today.

Many of us participate in making New Year’s resolutions. We look at our lives and we decide to make new habits because we see it as time to grow.

The messiness of doubts and failures, your silly quirks that bug everyone, the feelings of just not-good-enoughness, and your lonely moments are wrapped up by pure love.

In a world where peace feels like a scarce commodity, we cannot afford to be vague when we talk about the peace that Jesus brings.

I’m the kind of person who likes to maximize a good thing. If a thing is good, then more of it must be better, right?!

As we enter into advent, the celebration of Christ coming to earth, we prepare our hearts to receive and give; hope, peace, joy and love.
