How does God’s call in your life reveal itself to you? Do you receive a vision? Do you feel pulled towards certain actions? Does it come as a movie or an image of what is to come, or what you’re to do next? Do deposits of knowledge come in without any foreknowledge or action on […]
I remember being excited to visit my grandparents, aunts and uncles, and cousins, when I was a kid. Every August, we got into our 1969 Volvo and headed off from Iowa to California. Some years the Cassidys would rent a house on the beach in Santa Cruz, and that was the center of our focus […]
I’ve been thinking about you and the rest of our growing community, and remembering back to one aspect of its origin, which took place 12 years ago today, when Lin David Martin wrote on a piece of paper (at a meditation retreat where we were both participants): ‘You should be working as a healer.’ I […]
What role do your thoughts play in creating your reality? This question fascinates me. I wonder what it means to imagine wholeness. Can we imagine it? Can we think our wholeness into existence?

Thomas Keating has been in my awareness in a big way this week. Yesterday morning (Friday, October 26, 2018), I learned of his passing (on Thursday evening) from several members of our community. I have been sitting and remembering and resonating with Thomas, on an even deeper level since then. Remembering my time with him. […]
It’s been a while since I wrote you a “From My Heart” email. It’s been cooking for the last 9+ months. A lot can happen in 9 months! I keep thinking there’s going to be a bigger lesson that I can share more vulnerably – yet I’m waiting for the “bigger” lesson to integrate fully […]
It’s been a while since I checked in with you and wrote to you from my heart. I’ve been listening (to God) and integrating, and listening and integrating and … On this day, I am reminding myself of these facts: Spiritual truths are simple. … yet the mind wants to complicate. Life is simple. … […]
