Safe Place with Ruth Graham

How far does a spilled cup of coffee go? A looong way! I was making my coffee this morning, as I always do. I make it with a French press, letting it steep for four minutes, and then have frothed milk with it. It had steeped and I poured it into my pre-heated mug but…

Politics! Good grief! Can we get away from it? There are times I want to pull the covers over my head and forget about it. But we cannot do that. We live in a world dominated by politics – it seems to contaminate everything – even the church. What are politics? According to my dictionary…

I have steered away from writing about COVID-19 because everyone was. I am not a physician nor am I an expert on viruses. But there is a virus spreading faster than COVID-19 that I do know something about. FEAR! I think most of us, if we are honest will admit we have felt fear during…

In this stage of COVID-19 I think we all have a sense of being wearied with it all. It’s so much bigger than we are. Where is God in this? Does He care? How do we find our way out of it? Is there a way out? King David wrote, “Where can I go from…

Malaise as defined by my dictionary means, “A condition of general boils weakness or discomfort often marking the onset of a disease; a vague feeling of discomfort or unease; an unhealthy or disordered condition.” However you define it, I feel I…

Faster than the corona virus is spreading, fear is spreading. Fear has gripped our country – our world. It’s a scary place right now. There is nothing and no-one not talking about it. When you meet someone on the street (10 feet apart) – it is the main topic of discussion. And the more we…

We are all sheltering in place and doing our part to defeat this COVID-19. When the dust settles and we are allowed to open the country back up, we will see the devastation that it caused not only in lives lost but in relationships strained, livelihoods destroyed, finances decimated and a country deeply in debt.…
