Summer has always been a favorite season of mine.

Although summer is filled with a lot of fun there are also many luxuries built in and have hidden cost. Vacations … Continue reading June E-Links

The word comes from Latin for "coming" as we mark these weeks before we celebrate the coming of God-in-human-flesh. It's already 50 degrees as I write this message from Morelia, Mexico--but our nights have grown longer, along with the rest of the northern hemisphere. It is in these … Continue reading December E-Links
