Denying Abortion Coverage Is Not a Religious Value

We believe in the dignity and worth of all people, and that belief drives our commitment to ensuring universal access Read More

Take your dinner to go.

February 24, 2020

I just wanted to have a nice dinner. I’ll spare you the details, but while on a family vacation, I ended up saying this to a random person I got stuck next to at dinner one night, “I really don’t need you to explain the history of Christianity to me.” I’m not one to start fights, but I sure to get invited to a lot of them. They're hard to Read More

This abortion clinic is blessed.

July 16, 2019

The other day, I joined clergy from many faiths in a worship service that, like many others, featured poetry, music, ritual and prayer. But this service was different. Its purpose was to bring blessings on a reproductive health clinic that provides abortions. With their presence as well as their prayers, 10 diverse faith leaders proclaimed what Read More

How to Talk About Abortion in Church

February 15, 2019

Abortion. Does the word stir up emotions? Does it cause you unease, even anger? You’re not alone. Say “abortion” in a public setting, and undoubtedly the reaction will be strong and visceral. Say it in the pulpit? The idea is enough to make even the most prophetic among us quake and quiver. Our discomfort with discussing abortion, Read More

Claim Your Expertise

August 23, 2018

Years ago I attended a women’s workshop hosted by The OpEd Project, an organization dedicated to diversifying voices in the media. The first exercise was for each of us to state our particular area of expertise to the group. I remember the anxiety I felt as I attempted  to articulate what felt truthful and authentic to claim as an area of personal Read More

Creating Space for Wisdom Sharing

June 25, 2018

Along with spending more time in silence, another spiritual practice I’m cultivating is creating space for the wisdom of the room to emerge. At a basic level this involves talking less and listening more. Keeping quiet is a discipline I’ve had to learn. I was the type of kid who raised my hand to speak in class at every opportunity.  One day in Read More

Listening for the Wisdom in the Room

June 4, 2018

In a room full of wise women gathered for the United Methodist Women’s Assembly, I invited those attending my workshops to dive into the same biblical texts that I focus on in my forthcoming book Women Rise Up.  I divided them into small groups, assigned each one a story, and asked them to explore together two simple, though not necessarily easy Read More

Failure to Comply

May 2, 2018

“When is your book going to come out?” I’ve learned that for an author, this question is akin to asking a pregnant woman past her due date:  “You haven’t had that baby yet?” I’m pleased to share that I’ve submitted the latest version of Women Rise Up to my publisher. And no, I still don’t have a publication date. Stay tuned for updates! For Read More
