Divorce #2
I have been through two divorces—the ripping apart of one flesh back into two, the division of marital property, wedding pictures thrown into the trash bags along with the hopes and dreams ignited that day, a million tears falling on damp pillows in the darkest of nights. Yes, I’ve been through two divorces. The strangeContinue reading “Divorce #2”
The Church is a Hospital, Part 2
In my first “The Church is a Hospital” post, I talked about how the church should function as a hospital, but often does not.

To Save A Life–the Movie & the Sonic Kitty
On Thursday evening, I attended a pre-screening of TO SAVE A LIFE, a film that delves into the lives of teenagers in crisis (suicide, pregnancy, divorce, cutting, bullying).

Jon & Kate Plus the D-Word
Until tonight, I never watched a full episode of “Jon & Kate Plus 8.” Then again, the stakes were never so high. Would they stay together or not? Sadly, the answer is no (full story).
