John Rogers wrote this poem two years ago regarding his experiences sailing his own boat as well as angst over US politics. He found our website while studying the story from John 21 about Peter and the other disciples fishing. Thank you for sharing this beautiful...

Common box turtles, with their ornate yellow etching, love to eat ripe mayapple fruits. I recently saw one nestled near purple coneflowers in the tribute garden at the Corhaven Graveyard. What many do not realize is that turtles can live as many as 100 years and...

I love finishing my personal letters with a little ‘offering of soul’. This time it’s fly-fishing, and there’s much more to say about this at a later date. Going for trout with a fly rod is one of only a very few things that takes my mind off all else and one of the...

By: Joe Riffe I hate failing. It’s excruciating. This was true when I was young. I hated failing at school or at sports or high school attempts to be “cool.” Becoming an adult hasn’t changed that fact. My opportunities for failure have just changed. Now they are work,...

Liturgical seasons can act as guideposts through the year and Lent is a particularly special one. It’s easy to get caught up in the “sackcloth and ashes” part of Lent, with all the self-denial and focus on our own sin. This is important to...

Several years ago, my wife and I celebrated our wedding anniversary with a getaway in southern Utah. Where we stayed, we were bordered by the Colorado River on one side, and on the other by the dramatic red sandstone structures that make up the landscape. One morning...
