There’s a line in Pretty Woman that has stayed with me for years. Julia Roberts’ character says quietly, almost painfully honestly: “It’s easier to believe the bad stuff.” I suspect most of us know exactly what she means. A hundred kind words can drift past us like wind through an open window, but one criticism can settle … Continue reading It’s Easier to Believe the Bad Stuff
I confessthat I do not easily love my enemies.That I am quick to anger,quick to defend,quick to wound with words. I confessthat I have made others into enemieswho are, in truth,simply human beingswho see the world differently than I do. And yet— I believethat the way of Jesus calls me beyond instinct,beyond retaliation,beyond the easy … Continue reading Creed for the Hard Work of Love

We believethat we are not rulers over creation,but participants within it—formed from the dust of the earthand breathed into life by Spirit. We believethat every creature, every field, every bird in the skyreveals … Continue reading An Earthling’s Creed
April 23 Today is a sacred day for me. One year ago today, on April 23, my father, William Heath Henry, died. I did not begin that day knowing it would end in farewell. But early that morning, I received the call that he had been rushed to the hospital. What followed were conversations with … Continue reading Remembering Love That Lives On
There are certain days that carry more weight than others. You don’t always notice them at first. Sometimes they arrive quietly. Other times, they announce themselves before they even get here. Anniversaries. Birthdays. Holidays. The day you got the call. The day everything changed. If you’ve lost someone you love, you know these days. They … Continue reading Inviting Grief, Intentionally
We believethat there has never been a momentwhen God was not with us—not in our joy,not in our sorrow,not even in the times we lost hope. We believethat hope is not wishing for what might be,but trusting in the faithfulnessthat has carried us this farand will carry us still. We believethat when our plans unraveland … Continue reading The Unseen Companion
We believethat we are held within a living relational Field,seen and unseen,known and unfolding,in which all things belong. We believethat we are not separate from this Field,but arise within it—unique in our expression,and inseparably connected to all that is. We believethat what we call “the future”is not a distant place drawing us onward,but the unfolding … Continue reading Held In a Living Field
Sometimes the most meaningful thing we can do is pause. Today, I found myself stepping away from a busy day, sitting quietly with a cup of coffee, and realizing that instead of rushing toward a topic, what was needed was a moment of presence—a simple check-in. Together, we explore what’s happening in the body: where … Continue reading Recognize. Release. Return
We believe that grief is not weakness but a sacred passage of being human. We believe that what is hidden and festering within us is not healed by avoidance, but by being named and brought into the light. We believe that we are not meant to walk through pain alone, for we belong to one … Continue reading Transforming Pain into Wholeness: The Power of Love
We believe that love cannot be contained, cannot be buried, and cannot be undone. We believe that resurrection is not only then, but now— a new way of seeing, a new way of being. We believe that we do not all arrive at once, and that the journey is not a race, for each of … Continue reading A Creed of Resurrection Living
