Life Begins in the Dark

Somehow we have developed a love affair with light and mistaken it for life. Easter is about life -- full, undying, hope-filled life and it isn't always found in the light.

Prayer takes us deep into our lives and world. And that takes practice.

One With Everything: Make Me One With Everything

Science, history, polls, and our own experience seem to say it is a basic human instinct to pray. Why is that? Can prayer be more than another way to try to control (or escape) our reality? See the Menti polls taken in the podcast below:

How Much is Enough? The G Word
