Anniversary of sorts
How do we live well in the Kingdom of God when there are so many in it that are so annoying? One year ago today I removed my wedding band for the last time and placed it at the bedside. Silently closed the door. Silently walked away. Silently started the engine. Silently closed the chapter. One year ago today I died and was born again. Resurrection. Spring. New life. My new life. Beauty from ashes. But ashes leave a scar. Can we live well in the Kingdom of God with those who wreck our lives like a hurricane so obliviously?

*oligopistos - Greek, noun, "one of little faith." This is where you eavesdrop on my scribblings about my life in the Kingdom, the Church, the world and the theological academy.
