Labyrinth Journal
My
Labyrinth Journal now has pictures up, a description of the 7 stations,
resources to help you do your own Labyrinth, an FAQ and reports on how many
went through it with the feedback they gave…
Beyond a
“Rough Draft” Life
There is
a great Christian spiritual discipline that has been practiced in one form
or another for many years. Some people call it accountability. Others have
called it spiritual direction… But more than a few bristle at calling
someone their “spiritual director.” It seems like calling someone your
boss.…
Eutychus On 21st Century Movements
Way back in 2006 when I was a young pastor Keith Drury wrote a
column called The Five Great Waves … This trip down Boomer memory
lane was enjoyable for me at the time and I encourage you to read it if you
find that classic on the internet. As I type here 40 years after that

about the business of overcoming those struggles. I’ve begun to work on my most difficult
ones first, rather than spiritually walking around them…
Anticipating YHWH –

of a stirring on her side of the bed.
We opened our eyes to our already fully dressed 5-year old staring
at us!

really a true follower of Jesus Christ?
Sure, you prayed a prayer or went to an altar or checked a box or
did whatever the pastor told you to do to signify that you were becoming a
Christian. But perhaps there’s a bit
of doubt in your mind. Perhaps you
don’t know if you’re really on-board?
