Tweet of the Week-Jesus the Good King & The Good Sheppard
Posted in Tweet of the Week on Nov 20th, 2010
Even though the source for this quote is long since dead and lived a life of some controversy within the French Church of his day, I love this quote. This week we see Jesus as a completely different kind of king. He has no concern for money or power- only for his people. In Luke’s [...]
Tweet of the Week- Love & Destiny- Thomas Merton
Posted in Tweet of the Week on Nov 6th, 2010
It has been a Merton filled week for me. I am a fortunate “itinerant” in that I get invited to many exciting places and am afforded the opportunity to listen to other wanderers that have spent a good deal of their time learning about interesting people like Thomas Merton and Henri Nouwen. Pursuant to one [...]
Tweet of the Week- When we pray?
Posted in Tweet of the Week on Oct 23rd, 2010
Prayer has been on my mind this week as we faced a number of struggles as a family battling through the “cure” for my wife’s breast cancer. It seems to me to be a strange way to make a person well this chemo therapy, but we have put our trust in others and are moving [...]
Tweet of the Week- What is faith?
Posted in Tweet of the Week on Oct 15th, 2010
This week I focused my Tweets on faith and kids. Perhaps there is a connection there? This Sunday the gospel line that speaks to me is Jesus’ question, a lament, when he asks: “But when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?” It seems to me that one of the reasons [...]
Tweet of the Week- “Tell the people Jesus Loves them!”
Posted in Tweet of the Week on Oct 9th, 2010
If you have never met C.S. Lewis, I encourage you to check him out. He is a wonderful writer and deep Christian thinker who experienced great joy and suffering while on his journey. (Link to some of his books.) This Tweet of the Week is dedicated to the late Father Joe, a Jesuit I never [...]
Tweet of the Week- Growing Up
Posted in Tweet of the Week on Oct 2nd, 2010
It was a week to reflect back on the passage of time. My son turned thirty and as most of us of a “certain age” look back on these types of occasions and wonder where in the world did those years go. Muhammad Ali offers a reflection on how we grow, or we rot as [...]

Tweet of the Week- What does God look for?

Tweet of the Week- Does God Laugh?
Posted in Tweet of the Week on Sep 2nd, 2010
It has always amazed me at how unhappy some deeply religious people are. Some followers of Christ seem to have no joy in their piety and I for one think God would be saddened by this. Why do I think God laughs? All I have to do is look at Jesus for an answer to [...]
Tweet of the Week-Truth
Posted in Tweet of the Week on Aug 25th, 2010
This past week I have been thinking about the value of truth telling in our lives. It surprises me how easily we can at times decide to dispense with the truth. There are many different reasons for this, some perhaps noble, not hurting another’s feelings, all the way to outright lying to protect ourselves from [...]
Tweet of the Week
Posted in Tweet of the Week on Aug 21st, 2010
As you can see by the block on the sidebar of the blog, I have a joined the conversation on Twitter. I have been building “followers’” slowly and I am proud to report I am up to 29! By last count this puts me about 5,626,380 followers behind Britiny Spears who is number 1. She [...]
