Weird Stuff – Chaska, Snakes & Satan – NOT April Fools!

Posted on Friday, April 1, 2011 in Social, Spiritual, TreeHouse
TreeHouse trips have been wonderful times to build relationships and to challenge and grow together.  On one autumn trip I saw God do something inexplicable. 

One year many teens made new faith commitments. We wanted to help them grow in their faith, but we could never have prepared them for what God had in mind.

On our retreat we discussed that the world is in a battle.  A battle between good and evil.  A spiritual battle that we face when we choose to follow God.

Why Am I Alive?

Posted on Friday, October 23, 2009 in Emotional, Spiritual

Darkness surrounded our thirty-eight degree October morning. School buses filled the streets with their diesel roar.

Damp, drizzly, dark and dreary. This morning was not ideal for much, but I was looking forward to a day to write. Nearing the coffee shop I reached my left turn lane.

Across from me awaited a school bus. Like me the driver was longing to turn. Traffic was heavy; we both waited to turn.

The bus blocked my immediate view, but I watched for all the cars to pass.
