Sing the Faith
after Robert Browning God’s in His heaven, wrote the old poet, all’s right with the world. Seems up for debate with unjust suffering so commonplace, and every day seemingly more of it. No poet, no preacher from any pulpit, could ever resolve the mystery of fate and free will, of happenstance and...

Living covenantally and sustainably
As a geologist, I initially felt no need to connect science with faith; I neatly compartmentalized the two, thinking that science dealt with the external, objective world while faith was concerned with an interior, spiritual world. But the search for ways of living sustainably showed me that the two...
Prayer for Earth Day
The earth, and all that is within it, is yours, Lord God. Every creature great and small, you made and cherish them all. We confess, Creator God, that too often we have exploited rather than loved your good earth. We recognize our selfishness, our shortsightedness, our ungratefulness and our lack of...

A Good Friday Meditation: Could Peter Forgive Himself?
Remorse, repentance, self-forgiveness. Peter leads us to consider all of these practices. On Good Friday, can we repent, stick with Jesus, and find forgiveness?
For Jesus, there are no countries to be conquered, no ideologies to be imposed, no people to be dominated. There are only children, women and men to be loved.
-Henri Nouwen
“It is my growing conviction that my life belongs to others just as much as it belongs to myself and that what is experienced as most unique often proves to be most solidly embedded in the common condition of being human.”
― Henri J.M. Nouwen, Reaching Out: The Three Movements of the Spiritual Life
Spy Wednesday
The Wednesday in Holy Week is called Spy Wednesday for Judas' betrayal of Jesus. Amy Montanez asks us to reflect on betrayal, and God's faithful call.

As we enter Lent, the Interfaith Immigration Coalition shares it's guide - Lenten Values: Springing into Action - https://www.interfaithimmigration.org/sdm_downloads/lenten-values-springing-into-action/
These nine Lenten reflections can help both individuals and communities strengthen the energies of our hearts to repeal and strengthen, and heal and transform immigration policies during this time of urgency and potential in our nation. Farmworkers are desperately hoping for protections and benefits. Refugees are praying for our nation’s hospitality to re-open. Asylum seekers are awaiting due process. Families are aching to be re-united. Immigrants being deported to violence desperately need support to avoid tragedy. These devotions, written by multiple faith leaders within the IIC, provide both a heart guide and action guides to confess, respond, and finally offer the promise of Resurrection Hope to all God’s children.
