One of the primary features of living Christianity as Christ has called us to live it is being a part of community. Whatever Myers-Briggs personality type you are, or where you fall on the introvert-extrovert spectrum, there is no getting around the fact that Christ...

What a sweet and tender Lenten season for many of us here in Baltimore who have been journeying together with George Hopkins and the Repentance Project. We have encountered great darkness and brokenness in our past with tentacles that reach into the present. We opened...

In every way Jesus was the Great Reconciler, bridging the gap between God and us, and also bringing together disparate and divided people into community and even family. To follow this man is to sign up to be a reconciler and peacemaker, especially in places and times...

One of the greatest gifts God has given me through Coracle is an invitation to respond meaningfully to the ongoing process of healing the lasting legacy of racial injustice in the United States. As much as I would wish that we were a city and country where love and...

Martin Luther King Jr. said, “There is another element that must be present in our struggle that then makes our resistance and nonviolence truly meaningful. That element is reconciliation. Our ultimate end must be the creation of the beloved community.” On Saturday,...

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...

Sometimes I struggle with the dual nature of Christ: fully God and fully man. For me, it’s easier to see him as divine than as human. It keeps Him at a comfortable distance. From March 28 – April 6 I traveled with a group of 25 other pilgrims in the Holy Land...

Coracle recently made its first foray into Coracle: Culture, and a group of us gathered to watch the much-talked-about film, Birth of a Nation. The film has drawn less attention for its content and Sundance Festival accolades than for the director and star Nate...

The deep Monday morning sigh when the alarm goes off too early after a night of poor sleep is perhaps the best parallel to describe how I feel as an American facing the November 8 election. I am resigned to what is facing me and will get up and move forward, but am...

Dear friends, The summer of 2016 is coming to an end. In one way I’m glad, as it was a very HOT summer. By HOT I mean more than just the temperature. The Middle East wars, the US killings between police and suspects, the lone wolf terrorism killings in the U.S.,...

We haven’t even recovered from Orlando yet, but the news keeps coming. Here’s a very incomplete list of the most recent round of ‘too many gut–punching atrocities to keep up with’ just in the last 10 days or so. Israel/Palestine–children of both communities being...
