Meet my friend, Rick. Shattering all stereotypes of homelessness with gratitude, hope, faith and endurance.Â
For the past decade, I’ve worked with some of the most traumatized and rejected people in our culture who suffer from stereotypes.  Homeless, refugees, immigrants and the poor. However, it has been my experience that when we decide to answer the cry for love and acceptance that comes from all human beings, particularly those who have been rejected, prejudice and stereotypes are shattered.

There is a Field Out Beyond Wrongdoing and Rightdoing, I'll Meet You There
There is a Field Out Beyond Wrongdoing and Rightdoing, I’ll Meet You There
We live in a dysfunctional world, can I get an witness? We seem to swim in a stew of wrong and right, bubbling in the shame, blame and guilt that are the end result of the failure to meet impossible standards. Out of this human predicament, we have created a lethal brew known as perfectionism.
Our culture is built around an unattainable ideal of perfectionism, what is morally right and wrong. The…

The Broken Hallelujah Prayer
The Broken Hallelujah Prayer
None of us likes to feel broken. We like to feel put together, whole, complete. Yet, if we were to look back on our lives, we would see that some of the most important growth seems to take place whenever we have felt our most broken.
The poet Rumi said, “the wound is the place where the light enters you.” It is often in our woundedness where our most honest prayers are born.
We may feel as if we…

What Makes Us Truly Great?
What Makes Us Truly Great?
During joys and concerns on Sunday, a man shared he could hardly contain his excitement as this would be his first time to vote as a new American citizen. He came here from war, hunger and turmoil and now feels that he can finally begin living the story written on the walls of his soul. A story he was cut off from most of his adult life due to simply having to survive day to day.
This election…

The Witch of Endor, a Bible Story
Do you like witch stories?  There is a wonderful little encounter tucked away in the Bible, in 1 Samuel 28:3-25. Here’s a fun re-telling of it here in a little theater show I did with Tennessee storyteller, Michael Williams, where his story and my song are featured:

Why the words”Nasty Woman” and “Deplorables” Are Severely Lacking Imagination…
…the kind of imagination it will take to re-invent the world.Â
Clarissa Pinkola Estes said that the words “wild” and “woman” create a fairytale knock on the door of heart. Theologian Paul Ricoeur convinced us that words create worlds. “Deplorables” as a word used to describe a group of people with heartbeats who pay taxes and love their children is unacceptable, too.
Words create worlds and we…

One Day I Finally Knew What I Had to Do…
Near a remote monastery near Bardstown, Kentucky called Gethsemani, I sat in the living room of the nun who managed the guest house down the road as she read me this poem. I had no idea what it meant at the time. In what I refer to as my mass Exodus moment, I had just left a life of being a rock star and the marriage that came with it. I had exchanged a role in which I got to play a goddess with…

Why The Election Is Making So Many Women Sick
Why The Election Is Making So Many Women Sick
If you’re like me, one of the statistics, the one in three women of the world who has suffered violence in the form of sexual abuse, then you understand why this time we are living through is both wonderful and horrible. What I refer to as a fantastic terror. I can’t watch a presidential debate or news surrounding the election without feeling sick in my stomach, a burning sensation deep in the…

You Matter: Loving Your Dream Into World
“Everything has been said already, but not yet by everyone.” – Karl Valentin
In our world today, it can feel impossible to do a very simply thing such as finding your own voice amidst all the competing forces. We often feel as if an inner critic lives in us that agrees with all the criticism we hear in our daily lives, in the news cycles, in Presidential campaign rhetoric, and even in religious…

How Do You Get Pointed In The Right Direction? Ask the Foxes.
Wisdom is reasoning with the Foxes. – unknown
We live in a time when there is an enormous amount of information available to us but not a lot of wisdom. Wisdom travels beneath the surface of things, is usually passed down through stories and can be quite slippery at times.  Yet, if we have any hope for catching a glimpse of our authentic self, that soul self that guides us to purposeful living,…
