[The Stage is on Fire] is a page-turner in which, much like life, there are no easy answers and yet each step of the journey yields insight and hope. This work of heart must not be missed!

Katie Steedly’s first-person piece [The Unspeakable Gift] is a riveting retelling of her participation in a National Institutes of Health study that aided her quest to come to grips with her life of living with a rare genetic disorder. Her writing is superb.

I thank you … It is the authenticity of your “class notes”; and it is the delicacy and skill with which you present the nuances of classroom life and the actuality of your students’ and fellow teachers’ lives.

Weekly Wide-Awake: The Promise of Easter
May the promise of Easter, of springtime and miracles, of resurrection and hope, of pastels and paten leather, of bow ties and bonnets, of the sunrise and the living cross, of lilies and wet grass, of lambs and butterflies, of palms and banyans, of psalms and spirituals, of limestone and lava, of stained glass and incense, of trumpets and harps, of finding what is lost and losing what does not serve, of scar tissue and stars, of grace and mercy, of agape and namaste and ubuntu, of I Am and Be Still, of Hallelujah and Hosanna fill our hearts all our todays and tomorrows.
Listen to my friend, and accomplished harpist, Wendy Muston play Bach in celebration of Easter
