A Painful Epiphany

By Kieran Lin Rich – KRich13@bellsouth.net
Something happened to me last Sunday that has never happened before.  Jeff and I were visiting the next contestant in our seemingly ever-present quest to find a new church home.  Nothing unusual there.  We were enjoying the experience, although the church was on the smallish-side, thus making Jeff and I stick out [...]

One of Those Days

By Kiera Rich – KRich13@bellsouth.net
It was one of those mornings at our house.  You know, the mornings when life just seems…well, a lot like life.  I had my typical Sunday morning.  I got up, stumbled around, ran into large pieces of furniture and then it happened. I went to take my medicine and the lid wasn’t on [...]

Learning Curve…ball

By Kiera Rich – KRich13@bellsouth.net
I sinned last Sunday.  This, unfortunately, is not really big news.  However, it was the way that my sin was committed that particularly bothers me.  And although I do not normally feel the need to confess everything to my faithful readers (A special ”thanks” to all five of you!), I wanted to tell you [...]

There is No Place Like Nebraska

By Kiera Rich – KRich13@bellsouth.net
Today is a truly momentous occasion.  Let me tell you why.  With certainty of over 99.8%, I can say that I will never again post a blog that shares a title with the University of Nebraska fight song.  I am not now, nor will I ever be a Husker fan.  It is [...]

The Kacey Factor

By Kiera Rich – KRich13@bellsouth.net
On any given day, there is a whole lot of hissing and snarling going on at our house.  Once in a while the HissFest has human participants; but usually our cats are the responsible parties.
Our cat story began with Scooter and Kacey.  They were Jeff’s cats for four years before I came [...]

I Wanna Go Home

By Kiera Rich – KRich13@bellsouth.net
It was a normal day.  A good day even.  We got up, went to breakfast, and then on to church.  We worshipped God in an extremely moving, inspirational service (with special guests “Sons of Mercy”!), and then we came home.  Everything was perfectly normal.  
But my heart was aching and my soul crying [...]

Fingerprints on my Heart

By Kiera Rich – KRich13@bellsouth.net
Daniela is gone.  Last Sunday was supposed to be her last day but because church was cancelled due to weather, she slipped quietly out of town with no formal good-byes, no last hugs, no visible tears.  Daniela was the Children’s Director at our church.  Now she’s headed west to bless a new church [...]
