Child of the Church. On raising kids and keeping the faith. September 6, 2016. Last Sunday I made a retreat with The Practice. A community of Willow Creek). The Practice was meeting all day at the Bellarmine Jesuit Retreat House in Barrington, Illinois. They promised me hours of silence, a prayer session led by a Jesuit priest, and a hot lunch. I left all three children with my husband and made a break for the door. Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window). Share on Facebook (Opens in new window).

Child of the Church. On raising kids and keeping the faith. Vote Your Conscience, 2016. October 12, 2016. It happens every election, and this one is a doozy. This is a flaming dumpster fire of an election. A descent into madness. Winter has come, y’all. Winter has come. So Much. Pressure. Of course, we. Take voting seriously. I agree! And yes, we will answer before God for all of our actions, for every intention of our heart, and every word we ever say. I am so, so guilty of letting my vote do all my work.

Child of the Church. On raising kids and keeping the faith. Let us join the revolution of tenderness. July 12, 2016. July 12, 2016. Dear fellow white Christians,. I am dazed, but I have children to care for. My children believe that the world is basically just and fair, because mommy dispenses the M&Ms evenly between the siblings and daddy won’t put them in time-out unless they really deserve it. How can I begin to tell them what the world is really like? I put my phone down, and pour the cereal. And far...

The Self and the Great Community. John Dewey saw democracy as an ideal expression of associated living. That’s a bit of an understatement though, because for Dewey, democracy is. Much more than “a special political form, a method of conducting government, of making laws and carrying on governmental administration.” Such institutions are an element of democracy, but fundamentally, Dewey argued, democracy is a way of life. To learn to be human is to develop through the give-and-take of communication an eff...

I got confused while watching the news this morning. There was grainy cell-phone footage of a black man shot by police. But the details were all wrong. This wasn’t a story about Alton B. Sterling. A 37-year-old man in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, who was shot multiple times by police early Tuesday morning. He’d been engaged in the dangerously criminal act of selling CDs in front of a convenience store. This was the story of Philando Castile. In the U.S. in 2015. Sometimes I want to just look away. I was struc...
