“A Warrior sat under the Willow Tree” #2

“He did not make it to the Willow Tree.” I recently had the loss of a friend. He passed away rather suddenly at age 49, much younger than I, much younger than his teacher, but I am the teacher he rejected. There is more to tell about this Willow Tree, and one who made itContinue reading ““A Warrior sat under the Willow Tree” #2″

“A Warrior sat under the Willow Tree.” #1

Who will answer the Willow Tree? I have so much in my heart I hope to share. For the past three months I’ve been very involved in remodeling our old house so it can continue its development into a House Church. Much progress has been made, but also much to go. And then there isContinue reading ““A Warrior sat under the Willow Tree.” #1″

“I’m too simple.”

There are many things I could share about this first Black RAM Adventure, but it was a learning experience revealing to me just what an oddball I am. I headed to southern Indiana. I was on way to O’Bannon Woods State Park. My 1990 Black Ram Truck was fully loaded and prepared to be myContinue reading ““I’m too simple.””

God’s “Super” in our “Natural”.

So we begin the story of my first official Black RAM Adventure, as has been the vision for a couple months now and there is so much more yet to come.

Micro-Macro-Meta-Morpho.

My dream of traveling on a dime, fishing, writing, exploring, bike riding, connecting with my Grand kids to leave a legacy, and all from the back of an old Dodge Ram, 1990. When the dream came, I had no extra money, no fly fishing set, no bike, and no real strategy. All I had wasContinue reading “Micro-Macro-Meta-Morpho.”

The Speed of a Dream

Don’t you wish there was a gas peddle attached to that next big thing you’re reaching towards? Inch by inch life is a cinch, but it sure is slow! Fortunately, we believe in the beauty of slow, here under the Willow Tree. It’s been a while since I did an update on my “Dream toContinue reading “The Speed of a Dream”

Creating Simple Church

What did Jesus do? He kept it simple. What have we done? We’ve complicated everything. Created a lot of expense and work. And now we have to keep that big machine running. Is that the church Jesus started? Is that the way he lived? When Martha came to Jesus complaining of her sister, Mary, didContinue reading “Creating Simple Church”

God’s Covering

“So he said to her, “What is his form?” And she said, “An old man is coming up, and he is covered with a mantle.” (I Samuel 28:14) What is life really? God chose the Jewish people to write a book that says God made our body from the dirt of the earth, and itContinue reading “God’s Covering”
