If you are a sports fan you’ll have watched several high profile events lately with large unmasked crowds cheering on their teams. The NBA, MLB,NHL, and PGA have all, it seems, returned to business as usual. The scene of thousands of fans swarming Phil Michelson on the 18th hole as he won the recent PGA […]

So, who knew the Covid-19 pandemic would ever reach its second year? We’re all tired. Even though there is huge progress in some countries (like the USA and the UK) most countries, especially the poor ones, are in the depths of struggle. One of the hot spots is India. With our WOW ministry (“Working for […]

I’ve been thinking of the impact of the home on a child’s life. Rather than my thoughts here’s something from a late 19th century theologian: “ The father and mother of an unnoticed family, who, in their seclusion awaken the mind of one child to the idea and love of perfect goodness, who […]

We’ve passed the one year mark in the Covid era. Vaccinations and variants are vying for victory. Who will win? Seems that both may prevail.

Blunt, succinct, and counter-intuitive, if not biblically dissonant. Indeed, culturally dissonant too. The core value of reaching out to those in need, let alone achieving social harmony via […]

This week a “day of infamy” occurred in Washington DC. We all watched it unfold and we’re all troubled not only by the insurrection itself but by the implications. There’s a lot of blame-shifting and/or soul searching going on depending on political ideologies and adherence or non-adherence to conspiracy theories. But, regardless of polarities, no […]

Everywhere people are gearing up for a truncated, if not solitary, Christmas Day. The Covid news keeps deteriorating. As of the past few days we’re suddenly aware of a Covid “variant” that has emerged in the UK. Yikes! Scores of countries are closing borders to any British attempts at entry. All this while Brexit […]

We just celebrated the first Sunday of Advent. Christmas is less than a month away! The long established magic of the season is trying to gain traction, but Covid is pushing back. The online shopping, house decorating (apparently there’s a huge run on Christmas trees),and Zoom connections are all in gear, but the elephant in […]
