I am going to be laying low for a couple of days because I am down to the wire to get my final edits done for my new book, The Color of Together: Mixed Metaphors of Connectedness, which will be published on October 13, 2020 by Light Messages Publishing. You can preorder it here. This…
Every three years in the lectionary cycle, the story of the wedding at Cana (John 2:1-12) is the suggested passage for the Sunday before the MLK holiday. Since neither the gospel writers nor the lectionary committee knew anything about the King commemoration, many churches turn to King’s words in their worship. This year, as I…
Once again, I am preaching at North Madison Congregational Church UCC this morning. The passage is from Ephesians 5:15-21. I included the verses because of the way J. B. Phillips’ translation spoke to me. Live life, then, with a due sense of responsibility, not as people who do not know the meaning and purpose of…
I’ve loved the Magi since I was a kid. I don’t know if it was their exotic nature, or that they were chasing stars across the desert, or that they were a sort of odd addition to the whole manger scene, but they have continued to keep my attention. As I learned to love poetry,…
“Living Invitations” A Sermon for Pilgrim United Church of Christ, Durham NC John 1:43-51 January 18, 2015 When I was a kid I thought Jesus was magic. I’m not talking about the miracles. Somehow those made sense in their own way. The Messiah ought to be able to do miracles. I mean the super hero…

A beautiful, loving tribute, Milton. I wish I had had the privilege of knowing your father, but from knowing you, I can see how his legacy lives on.
Thanks, Martha.
How perfectly beautiful and inspiring. Although I never met your Father, I feel I came to know him through this tribute to him. May the Peace of the Lord be always with you.

Loved watching the slide show, but even more enjoyed having you to the right on my screen, watching and smiling.
Your collection of photos, accompanied by the special music, is a truly lovely and loving tribute to your amazing dad, Milton. Thank you so much for sharing with us. It’s apparent that you are like him physically as well as in your way of relating to your world.

Thankful that we are Looking for a City!
So sweet. You have so much of your dad in you. Love you.
Lost my Dad April 24 of last year. Visited the cemetery yesterday for the first time since then. My son, who missed the service, gave a spontaneous eulogy for himself and his sister. It was exactly what I hoped would happen. Feeling a deep connection with you this morning. This is wonderful and the music is perfect.
Thanks, David.
Peace
Milton
Honor and Gratitude. That’s what comes through for me. How much we grow to resemble our parent!
