Multigenerational Wealth, Affordability and the $criptures

Image
The $criptures. The Gospel does not condemn wealth itself, nor does it glorify poverty. Rather, it calls followers of Jesus to see all resources as gifts from God to be stewarded for His kingdom, the good of others, and His glory.   Most biblical scholars and theologians estimate there are roughly 2,000 to 2,350 verses in the Bible that address money, wealth, and possessions. This topic is so prominent in Scripture that it is discussed nearly twice as often as faith and prayer combined. Generations Baby Boomers: Born 1946–1964. Named for the massive surge in birth rates following World War II.   Generation X: Born 1965–1980. Often associated with growing up during the end of the Cold War and the transition to the digital age.   Millennials (Gen Y): Born 1981–1996. Known as the first digital natives who bridge the analog childhood and internet-driven adult worlds.   Generation Z (Zoomers): Born 1997–2012. Defined by growing up with constant digital ...

Beware the barrenness of a busy life

Image
Socrates is credited with saying,  “Beware the barrenness of a busy life.”  Those words feel especially relevant today. For many of us, “I’m so busy” has become our default response, almost a reflex, an automatic reply. “How are you?” “Oh, I’m so busy.” “Want to get together later?” “I’d love to, but I’m too busy.” “Could you help me with something?” “Maybe, but I’m pretty busy.” To be fair, many people truly are busy with meaningful and important responsibilities. There are seasons when full schedules are both necessary and good. But perhaps the more important question isn’t simply How busy am I? It’s What am I busy with? Busyness has become a cultural badge of honor. We rush from one commitment to the next, often leaving little room for rest, meaningful relationships, quiet reflection, or attentive prayer. We fill our calendars, yet our souls can remain strangely empty. A full schedule is not always a full life. Sometimes the greatest danger is not that we’re doin...

[Job], your story truly gives me hope. It gives me the feeling that while man lives on the earth, there is no guarantee that he will not suffer, however innocent or righteous he may be. —Gregorio Nsomboro #pkes      #MinM

A Pathway to God & Others

Image
  Authentic Christianity is less about embracing a set of beliefs and more about learning a way of life, a way that teaches us how to give ourselves away. It is the lifelong practice of offering our love, our lives, and ultimately even our death into God’s hands, echoing the words of Jesus: “Into your hands I commend my spirit” (Psalm 31:5; Luke 23:46) Paradoxically, it is in this self-giving that we discover our deepest connections: with the world around us, with all of creation, with one another, and, most profoundly, with God. In losing ourselves through love, we find the fullness of the life for which we were created. #pkes     #MinM

A Living Witness

Image
   "Jesus is kind Do not misrepresent Him." ~ Sr. C. Betrone Jesus is kind. His kindness is not sentimental or weak; it is the steady expression of God’s love toward every person He encounters. He welcomes children, touches those others avoid, eats with sinners, comforts the brokenhearted, and restores those burdened by shame.  Even when He speaks hard truths, He does so with compassion and a desire to bring healing rather than condemnation. In Jesus, we see that kindness is love in action—a strength that listens, forgives, serves, and gently leads others toward life.  As His followers, we are invited to reflect that same kindness, becoming a living witness to the grace we ourselves have received...
