From Darkness into Light

January 5, 2020 by ReverendAmanda

When I was in seminary, the first on campus job I had was with maintenance. It was my job to handle night watch. My basic duties were to be the on-call person on campus during none business hours. This meant opening doors to rooms for people when they locked themselves out, handling maintenance calls from … [Read more…]

Questioning Your Way into Faith

December 29, 2019 by ReverendAmanda

When I was in my undergraduate program at Eastern Connecticut State University, I took a class called the Philosophy of Religion taught by an ex-Jesuit priest.

Leave the Door Open for the Coming of Christ

December 24, 2019 by ReverendAmanda

Every year, on Christmas Eve I traditionally have the children place baby Jesus into the mangers. He is never there before Christmas because Advent is meant to be the season of expectation and a time for us to work on displaying welcoming hearts. But this tradition has struck me this year as reminding me of … [Read more…]

Trusting God’s Love

December 22, 2019 by ReverendAmanda

I tend to be someone who believes that people are always giving me their best and always being honest and forth right. By nature, I have always been very trusting or gullible as my brothers would fondly tell me. This has not always bode well for me. My older brothers and sometimes friends took advantage … [Read more…]

Choose Peace, Love, Joy, and Hope this Advent Season

December 8, 2019 by ReverendAmanda

Life can be so difficult. Humanity in general is not always compassionate, caring, generous, or just plain kind. In a world where people call each other names, bully one another online, and where there seems to be so much violence and war, it can be hard to feel hopeful. Yet this is what the season … [Read more…]

Welcoming and Inviting Communication

November 24, 2019 by ReverendAmanda

We communicate a whole lot before we even open our mouths to speak. If we are aware and invested in the relationships around us sometimes words are not even needed to communicate needs. Children do this all the time as they are developing their communication skills. I myself have had to rely on these other … [Read more…]

Purposeful Listening: the Key to Inviting the Presence of God into the Conversation

November 17, 2019 by ReverendAmanda

When I worked as a preschool teacher, we were all required to do a certain amount of hours of continuing education every single year.
