May 17, 2026: What are You Looking At? 17.05.2026

Why are the disciples staring at the sky- or why are we staring at anything less than heaven or what gets us there?

May 10, 2026: Love, and an Early Bedtime 10.05.2026

May 3, 2026: My Way, or the Highway 03.05.2026

April 19, 2026: Our Journey to Emmaus 19.04.2026

It seems so easy to judge the two disciples who could not see Jesus- but are they really so far from us?

April 12, 2026: Thomas, and Authentic Mercy 13.04.2026

April 3, 2026: Good Friday- Jesus Goes the Distance 04.04.2026

April 2, 2026: Holy Thursday- He Loved Them 03.04.2026
