When “Empty” has Full Meaning

Resurrection Jesus edited

As we approach Resurrection Sunday, we would like to put before you a school story that brings a different, and a deeper, meaning to the word ‘empty’. You may likely have seen this story (or a similar version) before. Nonetheless, it clearly underscores how God can use what society might term ‘the least’ to convey […]

To Bury or To Cherish a Memory Blog

Memory…it is an elusive thing. One moment you find yourself struggling to recall something. You try and try and, for whatever reason, you just cannot recapture what you are trying to remember.  The next moment, with what seems to be without any effort whatsoever, what you were struggling to recall arrives.  Such is the human […]

We enter this Easter experiencing an environment that is anathema to what we as humans, at least most of us, desire. That of gathering together, being close, and comforting each other.
