Saints & Scripture on “Trouble”

Last updated on: March 12, 2015 at 4:46 pm By Lisa M. Hendey

Today’s gospel from John 16 contains one of my favorite bible verses: In the world you will have trouble, but take courage, I have conquered the world. I’m always amazed by the ability of daily scripture to come to me in a moment of great need. When this happens, as it frequently does, it feels as though the Church has somehow managed to find a way to send a word of comfort that matches my exact situation. The gospel becomes... Read more

Sweet Tweets for 5/31/14 – Tuning Out and Tuning In.

Last updated on: March 12, 2015 at 4:46 pm By Lisa M. Hendey

It’s so easy to fall “off the grid” occasionally. It happened to me this week when I took some time offline to attend my son’s college graduation. My laptop, usually a fixture in my day to day routine, collected dust. The most “tuning in” I did was via my phone, with an occasional glance at email and twitter. I have to share that at times, being “tuned out” can feel intoxicating. Some of the great things that bring me the... Read more

One Child of the Rwandan Genocide Prospers

Last updated on: March 12, 2015 at 4:46 pm By Lisa M. Hendey

Today, I continue my 100 day series remembering the twentieth anniversary of Rwandan genocide. Please join me in prayer for those lives lost and impacted in this tragedy. #NeverAgain. LMH I often wonder at what could possibly enable a child who was old enough to tangibly comprehend the horrors of the Rwandan genocide to ever overcome what they saw and experienced. I can share that my own small glances into the situation have left me indelibly impacted. I can’t forget. And... Read more

A Prayer for Memorial Day

Last updated on: March 12, 2015 at 4:46 pm By Lisa M. Hendey

Two weeks ago, I was preparing to give a weekend retreat in San Diego. As I tracked the wildfires that were shutting down traffic along my route past Camp Pendleton, I pondered all of the men and women who have so bravely served in that place and in so many others around the world. As I motored past Pendleton, I offered a private prayer of thanks that I’m renewing today. For our soldiers, for their loved ones, and for those... Read more

20 Years Ago Today: Remembering Inaction in Genocide Response with Frustration

Last updated on: March 12, 2015 at 4:46 pm By Lisa M. Hendey

Today, I continue my 100 day series remembering the twentieth anniversary of Rwandan genocide. Please join me in prayer for those lives lost and impacted in this tragedy. #NeverAgain. LMH Today’s entry on the Kwibuka20 Twitter feed points to frustration on the part of then UN Secretary General Boutros Boutros-Ghali at the lack of a swift response to the Rwandan genocide: Today in 1994: UN Secretary General says not sending troops to Rwanda is a failure for the UN & the int’l...

Congratulations to the Excellence in Publishing Winners, Including Patheos’ @TheAnchoress

I smiled from ear to ear when I read the following press release (reprinted from the ACP Website) which contains recently announced winners of this years “Excellence in Publishing Awards” from the Association of Catholic Publishers. The list contains so many writers that I would consider “friends” that I found myself cheering multiple times as if I were at the actual ceremony.

Sweet Tweets for 5/23/14 — Already??!!

Last updated on: March 12, 2015 at 4:46 pm By Lisa M. Hendey

When John Clem sent me this week’s Sweet Tweets, we both agreed that it couldn’t possibly already be Friday. Despite the fact that we just shared STs (as I call them in my head) on Monday, this was still an incredibly action packed week. I love the photo above, which depicts the awesome EL AL airplane that Pope Francis will be using to head home from the Holy Land back to Rome. From EL AL, we have the following: At... Read more

Does #FreeHappyIranians Point to Larger Societal Change on the Horizon in Iran?

Last updated on: March 12, 2015 at 4:46 pm By Lisa M. Hendey

On the surface, it seems like a nothingburger… Six Iranians, joyously dancing to Pharrell Williams’ trendy song “Happy”. They’re just doing what tons of people around the world have done — jamming to a popular tune: As of today, the video has 600K+ views. It probably would have been lucky to have 600 if it was made in the US. But instead, this viral video was filmed in Tehran where women dancing without the mandatory hijab head covering is a...
