To be baptized means to make the passage with the people of Israel and with Jesus from slavery to freedom and from death to new life. It is a commitment to a life in and through Jesus.

A life without a lonely place, that is, without a quiet center, becomes destructive.

There are as many ways to pray as there are moments in life.

The most important thing I've come to believe in is that people with mental handicaps have a unique mission to bring God's blessing to the World.

Prayer and action...can never be seen as contradictory or mutually exclusive. Prayer without action grows into powerless pietism, and action without prayer degenerates into questionable manipulation.

Patience asks us to live the moment to the fullest, to be completely present to the moment, to taste the here and now, to be where we are.

Too many of us are lonely ministers practicing a lonely ministry.
