Welcome to the Patheos Spirituality Channel
We are so excited to launch the new Spirituality Channel at Patheos. Somewhat sentimentally, we are launching this channel on Patheos' 3rd birthday. It has been an amazing 4 years for us as Patheos has become all we hoped for and more. I began the Perspective of a Seeker blog back in June of 2009 when everyone on staff blogged -- on some days just to have some content to put on the site. I am re-posting my first blog post describing what I hoped to share and to explain the term seeker … [Read More...]
Off to School
On Monday, my baby, Macklin, started kindergarten. So Sunday night bedtime was a time to reflect on how big he was getting and how brave he is to be going to school. And of course, Mack got to pick the song for him and Jacob at bedtime. I have been singing to the kids at bedtime since they were small and I dare say it is as much for me as for them. But they do still ask for songs on occasion and I am only too happy to oblige. Now I must admit that I have a very limited repertoire of … [Read More...]
To Hope or not to Hope
I am a generally hopeful person -- at least I think so. I manage to look at most situations and see potential, believe there is good, and imagine that each new opportunity is just around the corner.

Or as it should be called, the Loss of Hope. For me, hope is at the core of what makes me … [Read More...]
Graduation for My Little One
It is the season of graduates. I still have incredibly fond memories of the times in my life tied to graduations. It is a bittersweet time of great anticipation. Now as a mother, I am getting to live all the new beginnings and sad endings with my children. My youngest son Macklin is about to "graduate" from preschool and make his way to Kindergarten. Of course, I think he is adorable and so brave. He is becoming such an interesting person -- with a personality, thoughts, ideas and … [Read More...]
Grace – My Favorite Fruit
A number of years ago, I was in a bible study with some of my most closest friends. It was a group of couples deeply committed to their faith and wanting to connect -- I lost all those friends in my divorce -- but that is another blog. I have a very vivid memory of one particular study that we did on the "Fruits of the Spirit'". A deeper reflection on Galatians 5:22. Each of us talked in detail about which of the fruits of the spirit (love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, … [Read More...]
