Pastoral Ponderings on Periwinkle Way: August 2015

http://periwinkleponderings.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html

Pastoral Ponderings on Periwinkle Way. Monday, August 24, 2015. Waiting at the Door. This past Sunday I was off and so I thought I'd take the opportunity to worship at Mount Olive. I called the pastor on Friday to give him a heads up that I'd be in the congregation on Sunday. He said that would be lovely. Person after person came up to greet me, shake may hand and tell me how glad they were that I was there. Well done, Mount Olive- thanks for a great morning! John H. Danner. Monday, August 17, 2015.

Pastoral Ponderings on Periwinkle Way. Friday, August 29, 2014. On Home and Hearts. As my wife Linda and I placed flowers on my grandparent's graves, I offered a brief prayer of thanks for having had them in my life. My grandfather's love of literature, my grandmother's concern for the environment- things that remain with me to this day. But as I reflected on how spread out my family is- Nebraska, Kentucky, Michigan, New York, Massachusetts, Florida-. John H. Danner. Friday, August 22, 2014. I didn't thi...

Pastoral Ponderings on Periwinkle Way: December 2014

Pastoral Ponderings on Periwinkle Way. Monday, December 22, 2014. Stories on the Sand. Every year our congregation hosts a Christmas Eve Beach Service. Last year about 1500 people showed up for it, stretched down the beach almost as far as the eye could see. It us a real Island tradition here on Sanibel. The gospels would suggest that Jesus often told stories by the shore. And some of his crowds were estimated to be much, much larger than our crowd- in a day long before amplifiers and microphones! As you...

Pastoral Ponderings on Periwinkle Way: February 2015

Pastoral Ponderings on Periwinkle Way. Thursday, February 26, 2015. Bumper to Bumper on Periwinkle Way. It's high season here on Sanibel! The miserable weather up north has driven many a soul to our warmer clime- though even here it has been colder than usual. We actually got down to 35 degrees one night last week! But high season also means pews are full and all our folks are here. On balance, I love high season! John H. Danner. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Helpful Links and Resources. John H. Danner.

Pastoral Ponderings on Periwinkle Way. Monday, July 28, 2014. Parenting the Second Time Around. I often say that being a grandfather is not only the best job in the world, it is also one of the easiest. I don't usually say that this time of year (the part about being easy)- but I really do say it with some frequency. When I was a boy and we'd play make believe I always wanted to be the grandfather. Even then I knew that it was a great gig. John H. Danner. Monday, July 21, 2014. Small Steps and Giant Leaps.

Pastoral Ponderings on Periwinkle Way: April 2015

Pastoral Ponderings on Periwinkle Way. Wednesday, April 1, 2015. A Tale of Two Women, Part II (with thoughts about Indiana). There's good news and bad this week. First the good. My daughter Liz, her partner Erica and their two children have found an apartment just two blocks from their daughters' school. It's a bit smaller than where they are now, but they are pleased to have the matter settled. I'm glad my kid and her family have such a supportive network- including her church! I think it is essential a...

Pastoral Ponderings on Periwinkle Way: June 2015

Pastoral Ponderings on Periwinkle Way. Tuesday, June 30, 2015. The Work of Loving. So what can we learn from the past? First, things take time. Many have commented on the fact that this change has taken far less time than many other changes in societal rules. To think it will be implemented free of issues, to think that overnight people's understandings will change, would be very naïve. That will not be the case, most assuredly. John H. Danner. Monday, June 22, 2015. Changing Symbols, Changing Hearts.

Pastoral Ponderings on Periwinkle Way: October 2014

http://periwinkleponderings.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html

Pastoral Ponderings on Periwinkle Way. Monday, October 27, 2014. So Who's in YOUR Prayers? I saw a brief blurb in the most recent. Which reported that almost half of all Americans say they pray every day. Of that number 82 percent said they pray for friends and family. Only 40 percent pray for their enemies and a scant 12 percent pray for governmental leaders. (October 29, 2014, 8) Which just goes to show you that those who think politicians haven't got a prayer may be right! Book of Common Prayer,.

Pastoral Ponderings on Periwinkle Way. Wednesday, July 15, 2015. A parishioner recently lent me an anthology of sacred prose and poetry titled. God Makes the Rivers to Flow. It is a lovely collection of poems and prayers drawn from a wide array of religious and spiritual traditions. One prayer that caught my eye was penned by St. Ignatius of Loyola, the Spanish founder of the Society of Jesus- better known as the Jesuits. Here's a part of the prayer that caught my eye:. Oh, my God, I want to love you,.
