    Jen Rose Yokel wrote a new post, Requiem for 2020: An Interview with Rachel Wilhelm 1 week, 1 day ago

    I’m writing this from a sunlit cafe in Providence, where the daffodils and forsythia are finally blooming and everything feels right in the world. Sure, I’ve got a mask on my face to remind me that we are […]

    Here is a memory.

    I am one of the early arrivals in the school pickup line on a wintry afternoon late in 2019. The tiny parking lot is bounded by a gray concrete wall built against a hill ahead, the school […]

    Jen Rose Yokel wrote a new post, Between Breezewood and Narnia: Introducing Zane Vickery 2 months ago

    Sometimes, a piece of art emerges out of nowhere and catches you by surprise. For some of us, indie artist Zane Vickery’s debut Breezewood is that kind of record. Built on sweeping piano-pop melodies, heartfelt s […]

      Thanks for sharing Zane! Your journey to creating this album gives me hope (and I’m sure other songwriters too) to persevere 🙂

    @bethanysanders0@amy-creighton@evergreenVery strange–I’ll double check to make sure you’re all on the email list. Week 3 of the reading group was postponed because our instructor Jonathan had COVID. We’ll resume this Monday, January 11, and have the next Zoom chat on Thursday.

      Actually, the email I received with the notice of your response is the first one that I have ever gotten. I usually just go through the website to see what’s next.

      “But I am free.”   Love that so much.  Also, Elisabeth Elliot has been a faithful guide for me with her wisdom and perspectives.  What a great piece, Thank you!
      Something similar….I just read earlier this morning a story of a missionary named James Calvert, who in 1838 sailed to the Fiji Islands with a team to share the gospel with the natives, known to be fierce cannibals.  The ship’s Captain advised him, “You will lose your life and the lives with you if you go among such savages!”   Calvert replied simply, “We died before we came here.”     Sigh…goals.

      Helena Sorensen replied 5 months, 1 week ago

      @caleb-fetterhoff That’s a big question. I have done a little bit of everything over the years, from arguing passionately to completely avoiding conflict in all the worst, most cowardly ways. But I am beginning to understand the degree to which people operate out of fear and pain. Dealing with our pain, wrestling with God, feeling our horribly uncomfortable feelings, and receiving Love and Healing are not easy things to do. But I think they may be prerequisites for moving beyond presuppositions and prejudices and learning to listen. “There is no fear in love, and perfect love casts out fear.” When I look at Christendom (and I’m speaking VERY broadly here), I see an awful lot of terrified, hurting people who have no room to hold anyone else’s suffering or anyone else’s perspective. I see a body of people who talk a great deal about the radical, redemptive love of God, but who don’t seem to have experienced it. I cannot bring about that transformation for anyone. I can only be transformed and be honest about my journey. I can be counter-cultural within Christian culture by imagining all the ways God is at work in the messes humans make. I can release my white-knuckle grip and allow God to surprise me. No argument I’ve ever made has been as powerful as allowing God to change me.

      Thank you, Ms. Sorensen!  By the power of God’s love, may we submit to his work of changing us, and may we testify to that change in the presence of others who may be fearful like us.

    Meg, I’ve never made that personal connection between the care Niggle took over each leaf and the individual care God has for me–what a lovely thought. But of course, if I am God’s painting, that is exactly how it is. I like imagining Him peering closely at me with his brush, delighting in the thing He is making beautiful, and knowing (as Niggle…[Read more]

    Thanks for being brave and going first, Renee! 🙂 I’ve found that many people have just never thought about how much of our lives involve our imaginations! And yet you’re exactly right–that ability to ask, “What if?” and to picture possibilities is behind all our moral decisions. George MacDonald wrote about this–and how cultivating a…[Read more]
