    The Humble Prayer of a Confederate Soldier

    The Humble Prayer of a Confederate Soldier

    I love this short prayer below. I came across it this morning looking for some files from about fifteen years ago, and I am sure many have read this poem before. The author is only listed as “unknown Confederate Soldier” (here), so it comes from a few years back, but it is still [...]

    The Lack of a Dead Poets Society Copy

    The Lack of a Dead Poets Society Copy

    I love being around creative people in the church body, always thinking and pushing the limits of their own thinking.  Being on the photography side of creativity I feel like sometimes I have one foot in the creative door and one looking in to see if anything interesting shows up.  Sometimes photography to me feels [...]

    A Little Mixed Up, Again, For the First Time

    Give Thanks // Quips

    This is a continuation of the Quotes and Quips set of posts I am doing on Sunday’s (see last week’s entry called Quotes and Quips // a Real Life).

    A Real Life from Mother Teresa // Quips

    A Real Life from Mother Teresa // Quips

    This is a small post series I started last week called Quotes and Quips (see last entry called Quotes and Quips // a Little Dirty Dinner) that is taken from small pieces that my mother-in-law saved or cutout and put in a binder.
