  • Spirituality vs. Religion

    One of the classes I’m taking this session is called “Spirituality and Mental Health.”  It’s an on-line class, so everything is done through response to online questions in a community forum.  The first question from this class was really interesting, and I thought I’d post the question and my thoughts here.  So here we go.…

  • School News

    I’ve been working hard at this school stuff.  This is hard!  It’s been well worth it, though.  I’ve already posted my admission to CST.  While I wait for the start in September, I’ve been continuing work on my Bachelor’s degree.  I just got my grades from last session and found out that I got two…

  • I Got In!

    I got the call yesterday…  I’ve been accepted to Claremont School of Theology!  I’m so excited and so humbled to be on this next part of a wonderful and fulfilling journey.  I’ll start this Fall in the M. Div. program.  Mostly, I’m having trouble not jumping up & down every 5 minues…

  • Is the Ground Cold?

    I was talking to my dad the other day.  As sometimes happens, the conversation turned political.  Now, when I think about politics and where my father and I generally stand, I think it’s fair to say that I lean decidedly to the “left” while he seems to be one who is just a little right of center. …

    Spin Cycle – Con’t

    You may or may not have seen my blog over at the Church.  If not, check it here.  You’ll see that we’ve had trouble with our washing machine.  I finally gave up. After all the drama that I mentioned in the other blog, I took off the spin belt & took it in to the…
