(This is an oil-pastel on paper (20″x30″) that now resides in Australia, called “Let There Be Day“.) There have been a few moments that I can look back to as cataclysmic events that changed the quality and direction of my life. They are sometimes instantaneous and traumatic. Like a profound crisis. Like the sun rising over the horizon in an enormous blast of heat and light. But sometimes it is gradual… like the rising sun on a misty morning that... Read more

I fell in love with Reformed Theology in my seminary days. I passionately studied John Calvin, Luther and all the others that followed in their wake. I still have a deep appreciation for Calvin and all that theology. My library is full of books in that... Read more
This is a watercolour painting I did from a photo of myself meditating beside a stream in the Adirondack mountains of upstate New York. I was about to be ordained into the ministry. It was a heavy time for me. Notice that the three trees are actually three crosses. Which pretty much describes my 25 plus years of pastoral ministry. I had no idea what I was in for. Or did I? I remember the anguish I went through before... Read more
