Red Letter Christians

I had the privilege of taking several courses with Tony Campolo at Eastern. I never tire of hearing him speak with passion for social justice.

Tradition!

It is true,
"Without tradition our lives would be as shaky as a fiddler on the roof".

The Fiddler on the Roof farewell tour to Chaim Topol was last night at the Detroit Opera House.

Here's to Topol!
Truly he makes the musical what it is.
We cried and laughed with the poignant emotional character of Tevye.

"Sunrise, sunset
Sunrise, sunset
Swiftly fly the years
One season following another
Laden with happiness and tears."

Deep Freeze

I caught a new glimpse of beauty up north when it rained, snowed and then the temperatures have stayed in the zero degree range.
Every branch is coated with a thin layer of ice in this picture so that the woods were sparkling. The snow was hard and had turned to ice and everything was glittering.
