Aw, man…one of my all-time favorites. From the old comedy records and 1970s show, the 80s sit-com (with one of the best finales ever!), on through to The Big Bang Theory—he was a national treasure. Thanks and farewell, Bob Newhart 📞

Thanks and farewell to a true Giant 🧡

Farewell and thank you to David Sanborn. An amazing solo artist and jazz sideman, but also THE go-to alto man for some of the best rock and pop of the last 50 years—Bowie, James Taylor, Eagles, Stones…his discography is mind-boggling. Such a talent, such a legacy 🎷

Holy, holy, holy is the LORD Almighty;
the whole earth is full of his glory! (Is 6:3)

For the beauty of the earth,
For the glory of the skies,
For the love which from our birth
Over and around us lies,
Lord of all, to thee we raise
This our hymn of grateful praise!

@pauljpastor I just read Ray Bradbury’s ‘Dandelion Wine’ a couple weeks ago—sweet, nostalgic departure for him. Before that I was unaware of the drink. I’m gonna have to try some.

Alleluia! Christ is risen!
He trampled hell and defeated death and has been raised to life!
And he brings us with him! This changes everything!
Alleluia!

Recent winds have left my morning walk littered with discarded palm branches. Make what you will of the image on this Good Friday.

[Robert Pelfrey @robertpelfrey]

The other gods were strong; but Thou wast weak;
They rode, but Thou didst stumble to a throne;
But to our wounds only God’s wounds can speak,
And not a god has wounds, but Thou alone.

from ‘Jesus of the Scars’ by Edward Shillito #GoodFriday

Thankful for the songs of Rich Mullins, gone to glory 9/19/97.
“And I've seen by the highways on a million exit ramps
Those two-legged memorials to the laws of happenstance
Waiting for four-wheeled messiahs to take them home again
But I’m home anywhere if You are where I am”

[Robert Pelfrey @robertpelfrey]

“I say to you today my friends, that in spite of the difficulties and frustrations of the moment, I still have a dream.”

[Robert Pelfrey @robertpelfrey]

Thankful that An Untold Story has endorsements from several spiritual directors, including the great @kevinjnavarro! Consider picking up a copy as a resource for your own spiritual formation.
