Every day, for the last four years of Whitman’s life, Traubel visited his friend and mentor in his small home in Camden, New Jersey. There, in his seventies, the great poet sat in his rocking chair, partially paralyzed, surrounded by a sea of papers, looking back over his life and accepting his quickly approaching death.

A storm is bearing down on Chaco Navajo Reservation. The Arroyo is in shambles. Its people gone missing. Grant, Kai and the few others that remain may not have the strength to withstand what’s coming. No one shows more distress in the face of this darkness than the baby still growing inside of Caroline. She and Owen soon find themselves in a fight to save the life of their unborn child before the storm—and all it brings—snuffs out its spark.

Das Stück schildert, wie eine königliche Familie nach langen Jahren der Trennung auf wundersame Weise wiedervereint wird. Der Titel spielt offensichtlich auf den märchenhaften Charakter des gesamten Dramengeschehens an. Er unterstreicht aber auch die im Stück durch Struktur und Bildersprache entwickelten Analogien zwischen der Dynamik des menschlichen Schicksals und dem Zyklus der Jahreszeiten.

Do you question whether God really exists? Have you considered walking away from your faith because you’ve been hurt by someone in the Church or because you struggle with some of its teachings? Or maybe you’ve already left? Are you carrying around guilt for something you’ve done and don’t feel you are worthy of God’s love?

Jesus didn't see a sick woman, he saw a daughter of God. He didn't see an outcast from society, he saw a child of Israel. He didn't see a sinner, he saw a person in the image of the Creator. Are we able to see others with the eyes of Jesus? Seeing rightly is the beginning of renewal, forgiveness, healing and grace. Seeing rightly, says Mark Labberton, is the beginning of how our hearts are changed. Through careful self-examination in the Spirit, we begin to bear the fruit of love toward others that can make a difference.

What's at stake in our worship? Everything. Worship is the dangerous act of waking up to God and God's purposes in the world. But something has gone wrong with our worship. Too often worship has become a place of safety and complacency, a narrowly private experience in which solitary individuals only express their personal adoration. Even when we gather corporately, we often close our eyes to those around us, focusing on God but ignoring our neighbor. But true biblical worship does not merely point us upward—it should turn us outward as well.

The most urgent call upon God?s people is to live as followers of Jesus. The most indicting critique against the church is as simple: its failure to do so. We long to renew our hope for a world broken and hurting. And it is we, God's people living in the power of the Holy Spirit, who are called to become this hope and flourish while in exile. Here is the crisis: we are made and redeemed for this calling, but it slides through our fingers.
