Building a safe community where conversation and social justice meet spirituality

  • About Me
  • Reimagining a Ruptured Faith

    When I was little, I was taught by the church that our beliefs led to the only true faith. Other people may have believed differently, but how I lived as a Christian was the only way to get to God. I never really got that. I mean Jesus was a Jew and Islam grew out…

  • What’s in a name? Part 3

    There’s power in community. Coming together with one purpose, be it snorkeling or running or a campfire or book club or whatever gives a sense of belonging. It’s something most humans long for – kind of like the image above – “like” bagels go in “like” containers! And don’t they look neat, orderly and delicious?!…

  • Looking for Community

    Do we have to be in church to find a spiritual home? When I was a little girl I loved going to church. Church was where my friends were. The grown ups surrounded us with care and taught us what it meant to live in community. There were chocolate eggs to be made at Easter,…

  • Hello. My Name is Fred.

    It was a gorgeous Sunday late morning with a blue sky and not as cold as some weekends. I was walking to my car after my shift at the market with Bagel Joy. As I approached my car there was a Mercedes behind me parked at an odd angle and all I could think was…

  • Hope in the midst of despair

    The pandemic did a lot of things to us. It caused isolation, depression, anxiety. But it also created space to do things differently. In the midst of missing visiting my parents and longing to be out in the world, the despair became palpable and I had to do something to change the isolation into moments…

  • Bagel Bite: The Island of Misfit Toys

    I loved the Rudolph movie as a child. And I particularly like the Island of Misfit Toys. Rudolph ends up in this space with a whole bunch of toys that feel like they don’t fit in. The burden on their spirit is astounding. They all wish for something to be that cannot be because others…

  • What’s in a name? Part 1

    During the pandemic my neighbor began experimenting with bagels. It started small and innocently enough. Soon creative varieties began arriving on our doorstep to sample and judge. And then they began giving bagels away. I remember sitting in the living room during worship on Sunday mornings watching the cars slowly roll by looking for the…
