Everybody hates Mondays, but I have grown to dislike Tuesdays as well. Holy Week is no exception. Today’s scripture readings are hard. There’s Jesus pronouncing woes on the Pharisees. There’s the widow offering up all she had to give, and then there are these daggum disciples asking for signs. Now I wish I could talkContinue reading “Holy Tuesday 2026: Woe Unto You”

Holy Monday 2026
This is my favorite of all the Holy Week scripture readings. I can;t always relate to Jesus’ words and actions. Lord knows that I am far from a miracle worker. I don’t always think, “Father, forgive them for they know not what they do.” But walking into a sanctuary and immediately wanting to knock everythingContinue reading “Holy Monday 2026”
Palm Sunday 2026
Holy Week is one of my favorite times of the year. During this week, we get the Triumphal Entry, my beloved table-flipping Jesus, the Via Dolorosa, Calvary’s Cross, The Seven Last Words, the crucifixion and the resurrection. Though I failed to complete my Lenten Devotional reading, and my fasting was non-existent, there is something aboutContinue reading “Palm Sunday 2026”
You Can’t be Serious!
For more than two weeks, I saw y’all post 101 commentaries about that lady’s dress. Some of y’all even wrote commentaries about the commentary. Somebody went viral for his derogatory comments about the dress from the pulpit. (For the record, I thought the dress was beautiful. I wish I could pull it off and thatContinue reading “You Can’t be Serious!”
Women’s Ministry: A Rant
If you know me, then you know that I’m Baptist-born and Baptist-bred and when I die I’ll be Baptist dead. I am one of those girls that memorized the church covenant and knows all four verses of my favorite hymns. Sometimes I wish they’d bring back Baptist Training Union, and then I remember I likeContinue reading “Women’s Ministry: A Rant”
Spy/Silent Wednesday (Holy Week 2025 Part III)
The Bible isn’t specific about what Jesus was doing on the Wednesday before the crucifixion. That’s why some denominations call it Silent Wednesday. Others call it Spy Wednesday, as that is the day Judas Iscariot accepted an offer to betray his rabbi for 30 pieces of silver. (Matthew 26:15) I’m just going to jump rightContinue reading “Spy/Silent Wednesday (Holy Week 2025 Part III)”
Thoughts and Prayers
We barely have a week under our belts in 2025, and of course the world is already going crazy. Here in America, we have the dance of fire and ice. While California battles devastating wild fires, much of the rest of the country is battling dangerous snow and cold. It’s even snowing down south. No,Continue reading “Thoughts and Prayers”
Appreciation Post
It’s clergy appreciation month. While I haven’t been sitting under a pastor for quite some time, I still appreciate the men and women of God who have spoken over my life, and those who have walked with my family through the tough times, and celebrated with us in times of joy. I am hard onContinue reading “Appreciation Post”
From Worldly to Whack: Tye Tribbett Keeps Challenging the Church
Disclaimer: I didn’t listen to the Breakfast Club interview. I have never listened to any Breakfast Club interview. Unless and until they are interviewing one of my relatives, I will probably not listen to any Breakfast Club interview. Please do not tell me I need to listen to the entire interview. I’m not interested. WhenContinue reading “From Worldly to Whack: Tye Tribbett Keeps Challenging the Church”
