  • What a Billion-Year-Old Rock Taught Me About Worry

    Enjoy this warm, imaginative episode of Tracks for the Journey in which I sit in my spring prayer garden and talk with Red — my billion-year-old granite stone. Through this playful yet profound dialogue, I probe Red's geological journey (meteor strikes, ice ages, and all) to offer a surprisingly simple antidote to modern anxiety: stop trying to figure everything out, plant yourself on solid ground, and live fully in the present day.

  • Danger: You May Lose Your Religious Liberty

    Religious liberty — one of America's most foundational values — is under serious threat, and Texas is where the battle is playing out most visibly. Fueled by the ideology of Christian Nationalism, politicians and public figures have targeted the state's 500,000-plus Muslim residents through discriminatory policies, inflammatory rhetoric, and outright denial of civil rights.

    I argue attacks on the freedoms of any faith community is an attack on the freedoms of all — Christian, Jewish, Hindu, and beyond. This episode explains what religious liberty really means, who is threatening it and why, and how ordinary citizens can push back.
