Light When It Comes. Light When It Comes. Homilies, poems, and short prose pieces by Deacon Chris Anderson. April 4, 2016. Sometimes in the spring there is a scent in the forest like mint.

You are near the sea, and it is rainy and wet, and you have to slap through the salmonberry and fern that hang over the path. Before long you are soaked clear through. Every mor...

Thoughts from Theophilus - Musings and reflections of a friend of God in a public forum from which God is increasingly excluded.
Musings and reflections of a friend of God in a public forum from which God is increasingly excluded. 20th Sunday Ordinary Time (Year B). Often times, not in our human understanding. Yet as difficult or challenging as this may be for us, it may be helpful to see how challenging it was when Jesus first shared this teaching. How do we respond to this proposal? That he was crucified, died and rose from the dead? We will have a choice to make. And it truly must be an ‘all or nothing’ response. August 15, 2015.
