A Spiritual Journey Through Creativity
Another milestone is upon me… my journal only has a few pages left. In fact, I think it will be complete after my writing group call tomorrow. The beginning of my journal I remember where I was when I opened this journal — Houston, TX in the fall of 2018 for a conference. I was… Continue reading My Journal
Trust is my word for 2020. I mean, come on. Since taking on a word of the year, I have a practice of checking in on it every June. So, here is my check in on trust! In my first post of 2020 I shared how I had just finished my book proposal. I wrote… Continue reading A Check In on Trust
Times like these calls for grace upon grace, don’t you think? 20/20 Vision 2020 started out with retreats and workshops all playing on the idea of 20/20 vision. There was this hope that 2020 would bring something new, maybe a revival of sorts. Of course, we wanted that revival to be easy and calm. We… Continue reading Grace Upon Grace
If you haven’t picked up on this yet, I like my routines. It helps me keep order in my life. One of my routines is to write a weekly blog post. However, as of yesterday evening I didn’t have any well-formed thoughts in my head, so I decided to let the routine go. I was… Continue reading Always Infertile

Earlier this week I sent out my last newsletter for a while (forever?). In it I listed places where people can continue to read my writing, including this blog. I even suggested they subscribe to this blog so they’ll receive a notification in their inbox every Friday morning, because I post a new blog every… Continue reading Connecting the Dots
It was kind of a whim. I figured I’d send a few notes by snail mail while I was home. I said I’d continue doing this each day while we were asked to stay home. I didn’t expect to be here two months later still writing daily notes. I didn’t think I’d still be home… Continue reading Daily Notes
When does something stop being normal? For years my normal was: wake up, drive to work, work, drive home. That was normal during the week and on the weekends I did things out of the norm, like sleep in, not shower, stay home. Over two months ago now that normal changed to: wake up, Brad… Continue reading Another New Normal
A friend recently asked if I’d tell her about Mother’s Day, so here I am telling you too. I don’t go to church on Mother’s Day anymore. Well, to be completely honest, I don’t go to church much at all anymore. But, that’s a post for another day. A whole church service all about mothers?… Continue reading About Mother’s Day
Last weekend I spent quite a bit of time sitting on our deck with my DSLR camera. I put on the longest lens I have and started looking in the trees. I wasn’t looking for anything in particular — maybe a bird or squirrel. When I took the camera away from my face and spotted… Continue reading Zoomed In
