God’s love restores our very capacity to receive and respond to love.
I’m happy to share that I’m starting a new position as Rector of Holy Comforter Episcopal Church in Tallahassee, FL! I will also continue to serve in my present role as Episcopal Chaplain at FSU.
It's amazing that God, whose will is absolutely free and whose options are utterly unlimited, always freely chooses to love us.
Christ's uniqueness is found at two extreme poles: both in his life as an infinite, divine Being beyond all description and in his life as a finite, specific, individual human being. He is the unique bridge uniting the infinite and the finite.
Hope is the courageous choice to live in the light of God’s promised future.
When Paul calls us to "offer our bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God," he is talking about the way we relate to one another in the Body of Christ. "In view of God's mercy" to us all, we need to accept that we belong to one another and be unified in love.
Much of OT prophecy reveals God’s judgment on the nations of the world: they are all bound up in disobedience. This sets the stage for the stunning plot twist: God’s mission is to have mercy on them all (Rom. 11:32).
We who are wearied by the changes and chances of this life may find rest in God’s eternal changelessness (BCP p.133).
Psalm 11 tells us that, since the Lord’s throne is in heaven, His reign remains unshaken even when it feels like all the foundations of our world are falling apart.
God’s Passover mercy to us is meant to be passed on to others.
Jesus’ own use of power reveals its integral relationship with justice. God’s power is the source of all true justice, and all true power is exercised justly.
In our bishop elections, if we “beat” the other side and “win,” the Church as a whole has in fact lost. The only true win is reconciled life together as both sides submit to Christ and serve one another.
It's so disheartening when the Church divides into "majority" and "minority" camps that disparage one another. "In humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others" (Phil. 2:3b-4).
True Christian discipleship is the exact opposite of escapism. We cannot follow Christ without facing reality, without being honest about ourselves, without engagement in the needs of the world, and without a commitment to sacrificial love.
The resurrected Jesus’ hands retained the nail marks. Thus we know that, when we are resurrected, the sufferings of our past will not be simply erased or forgotten but faced and overcome.
Pagan religions start with philosophical ideas about the nature of divinity and then fashion gods to fit those ideas. No wonder, then, that their solutions to humanity’s problems are ideological. By contrast, our solution is new creation in Jesus.
In the OT (especially the Psalms), the sea symbolizes both chaos and the nations. God restores the sea to its proper boundaries, stills its raging waves, and calls it to glorify Him.
For repentant sinners, exposure to God’s light is a transfiguring experience of grace.
Like Thomas, we too must “place our hands in Jesus’ side.” Not so much in order to verify Jesus’ identity, but to grasp what our (i.e., the Church’s) identity is in Him.
John the Baptist, who was called a “lamp” out of whom God’s light shone, serves as a model for the Church. In fact, at the heart of any biblical ecclesiology must be the recognition that the Church is foremost a vessel for Christ, the light of the world.

The story of Christ’s suffering & death has been manipulated by some into a misleading tale that God is angry & thirsts for revenge. The truth is very different. God is love & filled compassion for every one of us. The cross of Jesus is about the violence of humanity, not of God!
