Post Easter Reflection: The God Who Lingers
The Resurrection Holiday can remind us of the lengths that God will go to love, pursue, and commit to us. The cross of Calvary is proof that God would spare nothing – not even His only Son – to redeem humanity. And still God’s love doesn’t stop there in the Resurrection story. Yes, Jesus died…

2023 Gift: Making New Memories
There are some things that we long to leave behind as we venture forward in 2023.
