“Let’s talk…”
He took my hand, and led me into the sanctuary.
We were wearing nothing short of just missions attire, nothing fancy.
He sat me by the altar. Nervously smiling.
He shared his heart.
And asked me to make him the happiest man alive.
And there in the sanctuary of El Pipila church of Tijuana, Mexico…. he got [...]

It is 6 p.m., and it is 83 degrees F.
Ah, San Diego.
Spent the day in my church office today,
Doing some seminary readings on Exodus
Preparing for upcoming youth group events
Trying to avoid the spider that made a home in the corner
As I was typing away and highlighting texts,
Couldn’t help but contently sigh and close [...]

Crochet is my latest fad. No matter how grandmotherly it looks or how slow it is… I can’t help but love it.What started off as a long crooked chain of yarn…became a ribbon…became a belt…. became a scarf….and now a super-scarf. Every time I flaunt my ever progressing work to others, all I get are [...]

Half hour lunches are no fun.A part of me aches to be in California so that I can rid myself of these crazies that I see everyday at work. (But, the other part of me aches to stay….for reasons I obviously do not consider during this time)
Every afternoon, about 12:15 or so…. I sink into [...]
