Be Careful What You Wish For: Prayer is not about Wishing

June 10, 2018 by ReverendAmanda

When I was a child, I really wanted to get the toy in the Fruity Pebble’s box. It was a silly little ink stamp in the shape of a dinosaur. So I very publicly announced “Dibs” on the stamp, which with my brothers had always been their way of laying claim to something they want. … [Read more…]

Authenticity in the Presence of God

October 23, 2016 by ReverendAmanda

My neighbor is getting the wood floors replaced in her house, and as I walked the dog the other day, I was suddenly hit with the sweet smell of saw dust. In that moment, I was transported to a different time and place in my life. All of a sudden, I was a child again … [Read more…]

Drive Through Prayer

September 18, 2016 by ReverendAmanda
