Make a New Normal

change

  • The parable of the mustard seed is a treasured teaching we seem woefully unable to embody. At least we wish we could.

  • I used to drink a lot of Diet Coke. Now I hardly drink any. The reason for this is obvious. So why does it feel weird?

  • The enemy of the good isn’t just the perfect. It is any attempt to avoid doing the work. And still changing our minds.

  • Regularly engaging in outrage on social media writes outrage into our lives. Who we are online is who we are.

  • What two decades of doing laundry one way and then taking a chance on doing it differently taught me about change.

  • The freeing nature of Easter is that we are allowed to change. We are allowed to get better. To become new.
