Star-led paths. Hidden gifts. A healing touch. On the twelfth day, we remember those who walk differently, pray deeply, and offer mercy in quiet ways. A hymn for the ones who follow light others miss—and for the saint who welcomed them. Continue reading

Language. Matters. Always.
Worship isn’t a slogan. It’s a rhythm of truth. Christians worship the Triune God — not instead of creation, not against people, but through love that holds all things together. When language gets loud, clarity matters more than ever. Continue reading

Shift. Grace. Arrival.

Waiting. Healing. Confession.
Psalm 40 | Isaiah 38:1-5,21-22 | Matthew 16:13-28 This afternoon, as I sit through three and a half hours of dialysis, I find myself living inside the words of Psalm 40, Isaiah 38, and Matthew 16.
