Choose to Add Flavor

September 26, 2021 by ReverendAmanda

When I was 10 years old, I began experimenting with baking and trying my hand at cooking. I was not experienced and certainly didn’t always have common sense to question my reading of the recipes I followed. The first thing I ever baked on my own was banana bread. I used my mother’s hand-written recipe … [Read more…]

Living in Love to Feel and Spread God’s Joy

May 9, 2021 by ReverendAmanda

As a parent now, I have come to understand the definition of love, joy, and motherhood very differently than I used to, which means when I think of celebrating Mother’s Day, I understand it as honoring more than just the act of having given birth. Mother’s Day is about the love of mothers and that … [Read more…]

The Things that Go Bump in the Night

September 6, 2020 by ReverendAmanda

When I was a child it didn’t take much to scare me. I was scared of the dark, the woods after dark, the family dog (the meanest dog you’d ever meet), Freddy Kruger (thanks to my older brothers), and vampires. I remember very clearly I had slept over my friend’s house one night and when … [Read more…]

Creation vs. Evolution Part 4: Day-Age Creationism Theory

August 30, 2020 by ReverendAmanda

One day when I was a preschool teacher, I had a little boy in my class who was sitting at circle time and he interrupts attendance to make an announcement. “My grandpa died.” I said “Oh that’s very sad. I’m sorry to hear that.” I was trying to tread very carefully because his family were … [Read more…]

Walking with Passion

May 31, 2020 by ReverendAmanda

When I was around 10 years old, I would spend my afternoons after school at my Great Grandma Standish’s house. Her house was walking distance of my parent’s home and sometimes I would just walk there from the school bus stop. I remember one day vividly. I was sitting at her kitchen table that was … [Read more…]

Seeking the Inspiration of the Spirit

May 17, 2020 by ReverendAmanda

If you had to define a Christian to someone, what words would you use? (Invite congregation to help) When Bill and I first started dating, my father-in-law had a very specific idea of what a Christian was based on his experiences as a Jewish man. And I must say his views were not flattering. Yet … [Read more…]

Generating Love for a Better Life and a Better World

May 10, 2020 by ReverendAmanda

Mother’s Day is a time when we honor and remember the influence that our mothers have had on our lives. However, I fully recognize that for many people this relationship may not have been defined by love, support, nurture, and care. Traditionally these are the terms that are associated with motherhood. So this morning, I … [Read more…]
