It’s All Holy Week

April 17, 2019July 3, 2022 Anne Brock

The Last Supper It’s Holy Week. And I’m feeling it, deeply. I’m feeling the tension and the betrayal and the fear. I’m feeling the despair and hope and wonder. There’s a lot held in these seven days. It dawned on me today: these seven days are our life. It’s all Holy Week. It’s all there… Continue reading It’s All Holy Week

Torn

January 9, 2018January 8, 2018 Anne Brock

Sunday was a busy day in the life of the church – especially those that follow the liturgical calendar. In the United Methodist church we celebrate Holy Communion on the first Sunday of the month – so there was that. It was also Epiphany – the celebration of the three wise men visiting baby Jesus.… Continue reading Torn

Resurrection

April 16, 2017April 15, 2017 Anne Brock

Thursday evening during the Holy Thursday service we sang Come, Ye Sinners, Poor and Needy. This line stood out to me: “Come ye weary, heavy laden, lost and ruined by the fall; if you tarry till you’re better, you will never come at all.” Jesus didn’t spend time with those who had it all together… Continue reading Resurrection

Knowing

April 14, 2017 Anne Brock

Yesterday Bob Goff posted this quote and image on Instagram: This got me to thinking a little more about the reality of what Jesus experienced during those last few days. Sure, I’ve heard the story every year – I know the order, I know who did what. But today I’m thinking about him – about… Continue reading Knowing

Turn

March 22, 2017July 3, 2022 Anne Brock

We don’t have a fenced in backyard, so for the last two-and-a-half years we take Denali out on a leash each time she needs to go out. Since I’m usually up first, I take her out most mornings. We go out the basement door, cross the deck and into the backyard. Often I just stare… Continue reading Turn

Broken

February 9, 2017July 3, 2022 Anne Brock

I finished Ann Voskamp’s book, The Broken Way, the other night. I think I read most of the last few pages – I may have missed a few words because my eyes were full of tears and sobs kept causing me to cover my face with my hands. Let me rewind a bit… It took… Continue reading Broken

Heart

November 19, 2016 Anne Brock

I know being outside breathing in fresh air, feeling the sun on my face and moving my feet at whatever pace feels right is all good for me. However, ever since I ditched the ear buds on my walks, my thoughts are much more intrusive than I’d prefer. Many times I end up crying while… Continue reading Heart

The Cross

November 9, 2016November 8, 2016 Anne Brock

I wrote a very long paper for Systematic Theology several years ago about my views on the cross and Jesus’ relationship to it. I’m not going in that direction here. That paper, while it did convey my beliefs, came from my head – my brain, a place of logic and rationale. This writing about the… Continue reading The Cross
