CHRISTMAS GREETINGS

I still send out Christmas cards and happily, a bunch of my friends still send them to me.  Also happily, the greetings are often accompanied by some crackerjack reflections. Below is a small sampling. “Christ used the flesh and blood of Mary for his life on earth, the Word of love was uttered in her […]

“Now he comes to be born in the narrowness of our lives, to be incarnate in us, to give his love to the world through us, through our flesh and blood. That is one meaning of the Incarnation. The reason why we are where we are this Christmas, in this house, family, office, workroom, hospital, […]

Posted on 08/12/201212/10/2019by HEATHER KING

Last year, PBS released a four-hour documentary series, directed and written by  Helen Whitney,  entitled “Forgiveness: A Time to Love and a Time to Hate.” Forgiveness is wisely framed as a question, not an issue. Still, many wonder: IS there a time to hate? There is certainly a time–often a long, long time–to mourn, to […]
