Special Post: A Quiet Response to a Noisy September

Photo by  gaspar zaldo  on  Unsplash September has been a heavy month. Across our nation, we’ve been confronted with headlines filled with violence, unrest, and fear. Communities have felt the weight of tension and conversations seem increasingly shaped by division rather than unity. It feels like the volume of the world has been turned up — and not in joy, but in anger, fear, and grief. As the Quiet Chaplain, I don’t come with political solutions or easy answers. My calling is to listen, to reflect, and to invite us to notice the presence of God even when the noise of the world is overwhelming. This is a moment that calls not for louder voices, but for deeper stillness. Not for reaction, but for reflection. Not for despair, but for hope rooted in Christ. In this post, I want to explore four practices that can guide us in these noisy times: Grieving honestly. Praying with hope. Practicing presence. Becoming peacemakers. Along the way, we’ll draw from Scripture, history, a...

Season of Giving: An Invitation

Photo by  Robert Gray  on  Unsplash Scripture Reading:   James 1:17 (NLT) "Whatever is good and perfect is a gift coming down to us from God our Father, who created all the lights in the heavens. He never changes or casts a shifting shadow." Reflection November is a month marked by gratitude and generosity.

This season invites us to pause, to notice, and to give—not only from what we have, but from who we are in Christ. We live in a culture where giving can sometimes feel transactional—measured by what we buy, wrap, and exchange. But Scripture reminds us that true giving flows from a deeper source: the heart of God. In this  Season of Giving , we will walk through stories from Scripture that invite us to give in ways that reflect His love, His presence, and His abundance. What to Expect in This Series Over the next several weeks leading up...

Series Introduction to The Quiet Chaplain

Photo by  Richard Stachmann  on Unsplash Every day hums with noise. The phone buzzes. The calendar fills. The world pushes us to keep pace with its urgency. In the middle of this clamor, something in us longs for stillness. Not just silence — but a sacred stillness. The kind that roots us in God’s presence, even as we move through ordinary life. This blog,  The Quiet Chaplain , begins here: with the conviction that God is not only found on mountaintops or in sanctuaries but also in kitchens, workplaces, traffic, waiting rooms, and whispered prayers in the dark. Sacred stillness is not about escaping everyday life. It’s about learning to meet God in the midst of it. Why This Series? When I began shaping  The Quiet Chaplain , I asked myself: What does it mean to be present to God and others in a world that prizes speed, noise, and visibility? This five-week series,  Where Sacred Stillness Meets Everyday Life , is my first attempt at an answer. Each week will ...
