It has been a while. I hope you summer is off to a good start. I am linking a message I share at the church we attend this past Sunday (6/25). There is an interactive piece at the end you will be invited to take part in which we did as a church :) You can just imagine what that was like.

On the personal front I giving spiritual direction, teaching at Biola and continuing to write my book on the Beatitudes. I am hoping my writing will be done by the end of summer and the book will be released in time for Christmas—the must have gift of 2023. 

I have written twelve chapters, eleven have been edited once, eight of have been edited twice. I have five, possibly six, chapter to write. There are days that I really think that I am bringing something helpful and needed to the conversation around the beatitudes and other times not so much. I move forward trusting God and the process and being faithful to complete what I started a couple years ago. 

I hope you have a wondered filled summer.
