by CCDA Guest on March 20, 2015

Last week my heart sunk as I heard about shots being fired at officers in Ferguson, Mo. I have been a police chaplain for the past 15 years in the LA area, and I live with the fear that something like this may happen to one of my officers. Since the death of Michael Brown, there has been an increase [...]

Today is the day I choose to walk out my truth. I am a former offender and I was incarcerated.

On Advent and a Season of Giving: Peace

by CCDA Guest on December 7, 2014

John 14:27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. Although scripture foretold the coming of the messiah in the form of a child, the people of Israel were expecting a powerful king who would come [...]
