A creative, contemplative, and geeky preacher chick who loves adventure... and Jesus... and cats. Welcome to the page that's all about me! I'm not one to shine the spotlight on myself, but here are some bits and pieces of my life. (I really do have a life, you know, even if that life is mostly in my head.) I love the creative arts, but I'm also fascinated by the intersection of faith and science.

  • So What? Psalm 125

    An investigation into possible alternate understandings of the meaning of Psalm 125

    A "So What?" video probes into the meaning of a Scripture passage. This "So What?" peeks under the surface of Psalm 125 and wonders if there's a little more than meets the eye. What if this psalm is not just confidence in the Lord in the face of evil but also Judah's opportunity to thumb its nose at the northern tribes? This video also features many photos of I took of Jerusalem, along with a handful from Haifa and the West Bank.

  • 1 Enoch, "Book of the Watchers"

    A flannelgraph presentation of the story of 1 Enoch, an ancient Jewish book

about me

I am honest but not open. I'm not really warm or friendly or full of sugar and spice, but I probably care about you anyway. I try to think before I react. I have a few close friends. Sometimes I get trapped in my own little world. I love to laugh. I hate to debate. If I air my opinion, then I'm usually pretty sure I'm right.
