I grew up learning that in case of fire, you just needed to douse it with water and the fire will go out. But such common-sense rules don't seem to hold fast anymore in our increasingly upside-down country and world. This past Tuesday, I woke up to pouring rain and an acrid smell of smoke in the sky as I made breakfast with my two kids for their last week of school. A planned elementary school end-of-year park picnic was moved indoors.

Hi Readers,The season of Lent is six weeks long, and I always forget that the official Easter season in the church is actually often longer, such that we are now in Week 7 of Easter! I think it’s important to say here that, just as often as we neglect the season of spiritual solemnity, repentance, asceticism, and reflection that is Lent - we also often neglect dwelling in the joy, promise, and celebration of resurrection that is Easter! So here we are. Another week of Easter.

Hi Readers,I usually send out a bonus Substack on the last Tuesday of the month: usually a little catch-up of personal stories, or a fun chance to address a new topic. But this month, the last Tuesday of the month falls a day after Memorial Day, and so I wanted to use this space to send this note a day early. In this fast-paced, frenetic world, with millions of well-funded outlets attempting to vie for our attention, it can be really tough to slow down - reflect - remember, and even grieve.

Hi Readers,It’s Memorial Day weekend and the end of a very, very crazy May/spring around here - so I will keep this intro short. Hope you all are getting a chance to breathe a little this weekend and maybe spend some time outdoors, even if - like us in Minnesota - the weather is a bit colder than expected.

Hi Readers,It’s the Friday before Memorial Day weekend, and so I hope you have a relatively light work day and are getting ready to spend some time outdoors with loved ones. For those of us with school-aged kids, May always kind of feels like a crazy sprint, filled with lots of school events and repeated reminders to finish homework and wake up on time for the school bus … we almost made it (our kids have a couple of weeks of school left).
