Easter Greetings!

Easter Greetings! He is risen, Alleluia! Alleluia!

In a recent workshop we focused on the themes that emerge in our life story and narrative (Narrative is the story we tell ourselves about ourselves). Our most powerful question is embedded in those themes. That is why it is so important to see past the negative influences and traumatic events that may have befallen us along the way. All of us have experienced woundedness of one sort or another, and it is critical that we not make that our identity. There are ways to move forward, sometimes by embracing our wounds, rather than being shackled by them. Doing so can free us to see ourselves as God does.

Finding Your Powerful Question Within Your Spiritual Gifts Workshop

This past weekend, Joe Hilke and John Olesnavage conducted a workshop for the United Methodists NE District, Circuit 12, in Sheboygan Falls, Wisconsin.

The workshop was titled, “Finding Your Powerful Question Within Your Spiritual Gifts”. Joe led a discussion on spiritual gifts and John introduced Powerful Question. Participants response was enthusiastic. The second and concluding part of this workshop will be held this Saturday, April 9, 2022 at the same location.

Relationships

The proof that we exist is that we have relationships. How many of us are trying to exist without relationships, especially without a relationship with God who brought us into existence in the first place. I think we are seeing both sides of that in the Ukraine. A people united in defending their homeland, and a dictator who is a god unto himself.
