Earlier today I posted this picture on Facebook.: I posted it last year as well because it made me chuckle as it’s filled with obvious sarcasm at the irony of so many people complaining about immigrants and then celebrating Columbus Day as if it's the true story of American History and pride.

Okay, I’ve washed my face…now what?
This is a post about a book. This is not a book review. This is also not not a book review. This is like a book review but more specifically, it's a mood review, a life review, and a reminder that God is telling me "Hey you...I see you. *wink*" only...inspired by a book. A … Continue reading Okay, I’ve washed my face…now what?

Just Stop!
Two years ago, I watched as my city was burned and bruised and torn apart by a climatic event after decades of uncomfortable and unjust situations. Like a lot of people, I was hurt and angry and prayed for a peace that I knew wasn’t going to come easily. It’s not a secret that I … Continue reading Just Stop!
I want to be a prostitute…
Recently, we had a discussion with our church group about the story of the woman washing Jesus' feet. (Luke 7:36-50).
