Transcript This week the we are remembering the great Representative John Lewis. Which has led me back to his interview some years ago with Krista Tippett of On Being.

Meeting a Spirit Helper

July 24, 2020

Transcript So I want to talk about something that’s really hard to talk about. Partly because it’s so personal, and partly because it’s so easily misunderstood.

July 17, 2020

July 3, 2020

Transcript What a time we’re living through! A time we couldn’t imagine just a few months ago, when we used to hug each other! And leave the house without wearing a mask!

Listening to nature

June 26, 2020

Transcript I’ll never forget the day that I learned that nature can talk to us. And I don’t mean in the metaphorical* sense, like seeing a tree and seeing orange leaves announce that fall is coming. Or clouds announcing that the weather is going to change. Yes, every part of nature speaks that way. But…  Read More…
