Tuesday, August 30, 2011. Guest Post: Better One Day. Nicki is a writer friend of Leanne Shawler's from Georgia (editing to put in correct state, sorry Nicki! Leanne caught one of her blog posts recently and invited her to come share her story with us. Sometimes the words of encouragement that we give others are the words we most need to hear. You can imagine the blessings. They are numerous. Loving teachers, caring environment, and happy children. Which day will it be better? With each question I asked,...

Thursday, September 29, 2011. Gillian in Her New Stole! Gillian just sent over some pictures of her wearing the new stole that we gifted her with. We ordered it from the UK just for her as thanks for her service with us. It arrived just in time for Michaelmas, the Feast of St. Michael and All Angels! Doesn't it look great? Rev Gillian Barr was with us as deacon and priest last year and is now Chaplain at the Canterbury Center at Old Dominion University. Good Samaritan Episcopal Church. Links to this post.

Thursday, April 26, 2012. Is respect central to your marriage? I took that promise very seriously. She passed 14 years ago, and I still honor it today just as much as the day it happened. Is respect central to your marriage? Or is there another foundational element of marriage that is central to you? PS from The Editor: the last session of Laura Henson's "What's Love Got to Do With It? Building and Sustaining Healthy Marriages" is this Sunday at 11:15amish. Good Samaritan Episcopal Church. I was deeply m...

Thursday, October 27, 2011. How would your life be different without Good Sam? Bill and I were driving down the road the other day and I was talking about something I had to do for church. And Bill asked me how would our lives be different if we had not joined Good Sam. The first thing I said was “I’d have a lot more free time on my hands! 8221; But it started us thinking. And since then this church has helped shape our lives in ways that we could never have imagined. It is here that we are reminded of G...

Thursday, March 28, 2013. When Your Mind Won't Be Still. This Lent, I took on the spiritual discipline of meditation. There’s a small group of us keeping in touch through email as part of Good Sam’s Open Source Lent. I thought I’d share a revelation about my story. It got off to a rocky start, I did really well last week, and this week, my routine became unstuck: appointments, delayed chores, all have combined to stop me meditating except for a few blissful moments in yoga class today. Over an hour later...

Tuesday, November 29, 2011. How Well Do You Know Scripture? By Rev. Rebecca Edwards. In my sermon on November 13, I threw out a challenge for all of us to engage with scripture in deeper ways. I am following up with some of my favorite recommendations for ways to do that. Read the whole Bible in a year):. What Is the Bible Challenge? One Year Bible Online:. Bible Gateway Reading Plans. Allows you to choose your reading plan and translation. The Daily Office: Read most of the Bible over the course of two ...

Tuesday, April 9, 2013. Dare to Live Fully. This Sunday I'm leading the adult Christian education session through a book that profoundly impacted my life: how I see the world, and how I respond as a follower of Christ. I want to share this book with you and fortunately, the author released a DVD study, which makes it easier to share. Ann Voskamp. Her book is "One Thousand Gifts" and it has been on the New York Times best seller list for about 60 week. And come try it out on Sunday, around 11:15am-ish.

Friday, June 29, 2012. Today is my last day as Communications Director at Good Sam. It's both an exciting day and a sad one. It's been an incredible journey with y'all over these past five years. If I may toot my horn for a moment, I'd like to reflect on how far we've come:. The brand: giving us the "love. be loved." hook on which to hang our strategic plan, be recognizable as us in all our materials. We entered the social media sphere with Facebook and kinda Twitter. Both Chris and I discerned that I ha...
