Today Facebook reminded me of something I posted 12 years ago – Sometimes, even after almost seven months, my heart still has a hard time coming to terms with the reality of Veronica’s death. This morning I was thinking about one of the countless...
Finding God In The Common Places Luke 24: 13-32 Roger Lynn September 25, 2022 One of the most remarkable things about the Christian faith is how ordinary it is. I suspect that if we were honest with ourselves, what we would really like, at least some of the time,...
