I’ve been looking for a picture for this passage since reading it yesterday. I took pictures of circles on the rec center sports field – those just didn’t seem right. Then I took some pictures of random circles that I saw when walking to church […]

Imago Scriptura 85 – Romans 12:9-21 – How not What
Today is a combination of different pieces that came together to really speak to me today. First came these words from Romans 12:9-21 – which can basically stand on their own without any commentary…some of the most powerful, challenging, convicting, beautiful words in Scripture… Let […]
Imago Scriptura 82 – Psalm 71 and Romans 8 – Refuge
It doesn’t matter our age but we always have places of refuge. Places to go when things seem out of control or seem scary or we are hurting. For me it has been places both physical and mental. At various times, my refuge is my […]
Imago Scriptura 81 – Psalms 51-53 & Romans 2 – Upside Down
So, I took this picture laying on a rock on the boulder field below Devil’s Tower while leaning my head backwards. Why? Because I thought it would be good to do – the kids thought I was crazy. But it captures something for me about […]
Imago Scriptura 62 – Greater than One
One person can make a difference, but an even greater difference comes when we work with others. In the story of Esther the last few days, Mordecai would not have been able to make the differ he made in rescuing the Jews from destruction without […]
Imago Scriptura 58 – Aroma
I came to the end of 2 Chronicles today and having read through 1 and 2 Kings and then 1 and 2 Chronicles, I have read about many sacrifices and offerings made in the temple. I have read about more animals than I could count […]
Imago Scriptura 57 – One
In yesterday’s reading from John 17, we have one of what feels like the most impassioned prayers that Jesus prays. The whole of chapter 17 is Jesus praying for his disciples and specifically for unity in verses 20 and following. While Jesus was praying specifically […]
Imago Scriptura 54 – Pax et Bonum
The readings for yesterday and today from the Gospel of John all deal with the same situation – a man who was born blind whose sight is restored (actually can it be restored if he never could see before?) by Jesus and the “investigation” that […]
Imago Scriptura 53 – Tunnel
In yesterday’s reading from John 8 is one of the most well known sayings of Jesus – “If you continue in my word, you are truly my disciples; and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.” When I read that […]
Imago Scriptura 52 – The Color Green
Yesterday’s reading from 1 Chronicles has two offerings of prayer and praise to God by King David. First from 1 Chronicles 16:8-36 and the second from 17:16-27. Both share of David’s experiences of God in his life, his relationship with God both as an individual […]
Imago Scriptura 51 – Packets
“…are you angry with me because I healed a man’s whole body on the sabbath? Do not judge by appearances, but judge with right judgment.” – John 7:23-24 This morning, I had the honor of helping lead a service celebrating the life of a dear […]
Imago Scriptura 50 – Which Way
Where my boys take piano is a wonderful little nature walk in the middle of the neighborhood. Depending on the weather, I will often take a quick walk around there while they are having their lessons. When you first walk into the preserve, you are […]
