Then Jonah prayed to the Lord his God from inside the fish. 2 He said, “I cried out to the Lord in my great trouble, and he answered me. I called to you from the land of the dead, and Lord, you heard me! Jonah 2:1-3 (NLT, my emphasis) Job…
Henry and I have been wanting to be a part of an online Bible study for some time. I, frankly, have forgotten how doing something “new” does have its time of working out the kinks. I hope those of you who have been interested will stick with this as it will be a wonderful study…
I have a feeling that this week’s lectionary texts are going to bring the best discussion yet! Please read the four passages and give them a bit of thought before you sign in next Monday night. Maybe even write down some questions that come to mind. Lectionary texts: 1 Kings 3:5-12 Psalm 119:129-136 Romans 8:26-39 Matthew 13:31-52 Opening…
Our first night of Bible study gave us some points that need clarification and technical glitches which require some refining. But we will continue forward and Henry and I are excited to see who joins us every week and what God will teach us all! Next Monday evening our opening questions will be: Can we,…

As 2012 winds down and I see 2013 rising up to meet me, it is that time of year to think about making a course correction that will produce “good”. At this time next year I want to be able to say, “Yes, this year was better than last year.” But making a change for…
It’s Saturday night and, like most weeks, my mind goes to the activities of tomorrow which includes the time I’ve been given to meet with a small group to study God’s Word. It’s an important hour in my week. In the interest of full disclosure, I have to confess that I didn’t always feel this…
My husband, Henry, and I have created a new Facebook page as a way for people to connect with us regarding our availability to teach or speak to groups. We would love to hear from you!
