Can’t exhale if I don’t inhale By Cara Strauss Contreras It was getting married that wrecked my fragile ignorance. In general I had obeyed God without much resistance. Following God’s call to Bolivia. Trying to shape my life into sincere ministry among the poor. Obeying the hard command to stay with people in their pain […]

Apprenticing Obedience Esdrianne Cohen Something happened to me on the day of the children’s party (for children whose mothers participate in Projeto Ester).

I am not sure if Remedy Drive was thinking intimacy when writing these lyrics or if the reader will think intimacy when reading them. Neither of those things really matter though, because when I sing this song it is my […]

Beauty for Ashes I woke on Ash Wednesday not to the peaceful silence of the morning, but to the piercing drone of a fire alarm.
