I say to some friends, “let’s create something beautiful.” We break bread and drink from the cup. We talk. We dream. We laugh. We are inspired.

Lectio Divina or Sacred Reading is a way of reading the Bible that allows us to hear, enter into, and find a home within God’s story.
Encouraging, Edifying, Educating, and Empowering people to become all that God has created them to be.
Who Am I?
What I’m passionate about is following a Jewish Rabbi who walked the earth 2,000 years ago. Through his example he offered the world a new paradigm to live by that included “love for enemies,” “heartfelt compassion,” and “sacrificial service.” He modeled a “Gospel” lifestyle and inaugurated a new moment in history called God’s “kingdom” or “reign.” His reign puts relationships before programs, integrity before efficiency, and peace before prosperity. With all of my mind, heart, soul, and strength I want to follow my Rabbi’s example learning to live in love, cultivate compassion, and care for the “poor, widow, and orphan.”
