Welcome

I am a spiritual director and an elder at my church. I think a lot about faith and growth and find that it helps me to write about what I am thinking. I hope that reading it may help you, even if only by raising questions!

You will find three categories of posts here. If I have set it up as hoped, each category is on its own page. The most recent across categories below. The three categories are:

  • General posts: pretty much anything on Christian spiritual formation, the love of God, and maturing in faith.
  • The Fog is the title of an allegorical tale that has been kicking around in my head for quite a while. I am not sure what form this will take.
  • In Pops’ Workshop: Serialization of a book that details my mystic transformational journey; a memoir of sorts. I am done with this one, so there won’t be new content here. Follow this link for the table of contents and enjoy!

Here are the latest post from each of the categories

The Fog

Fog Chapter 1: Fog and Light

I awoke, as I did every morning, cold and damp in the grey half-light of the the Fog. I can’t remember the Fog not being there.  It is everywhere, and as far I as can tell, it has always been.  Cold and damp cover everything.  The sunlight is diffused to the point of near uselessness…
