					<description><![CDATA[A reflection on the lectionary readings for Sunday, July 5th In the spring and fall and sometimes the summer my wife and I love to go backpacking.  We enjoy the quiet of long miles on the trail, the beauty of God’s creation, and the simplicity of living from a backpack.  But if we admit it, [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Among the many roots of the season of Lent is the remembrance that Jesus spent 40 days in the wilderness at the beginning of his ministry. As we enter into our own 40 days of discipline, it would be good to ask what, exactly, Jesus was going out to the desert to do? The answers [&#8230;]]]></description>

To the coffee shop, to the store, to school—if I’m going someplace by myself I do my best to get there by bike. One particular stretch I ride regularly has newly striped bike lanes—lanes that [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The oldest heresies in Christianity have been those that have denied the body—Christ’s body, our bodies.  Gnosticism is a name that applies to a good many of them, Docetism another.  The idea is that God is too great to have taken on a human body and that the material realities of our body are too [&#8230;]]]></description>

Secrecy is a spiritual discipline, a key companion to humility and truth telling and prayer.  Jesus kept secrets and taught his disciples to do the same.  Matthew 6:1-21 concerns the keeping of secrets, the doing of things [&#8230;]]]></description>
