Stella Maris Retreat

Laity Empowerment Project: Reverend Ron travels all across the country teaching congregations how to bring out the ministries and gifts of the laity. His web site explains it all.

NRSV: The New Revised Standard Version of the Bible on line for quick reference.

Sacred Spaces: When you need a place to get away from it all, this is it. Gentle guidance into a more gentle, prayerful state of mind prepares you for a short scripture-guided seeking of God's will for you.

Religious Tolerance: In a world where church, temple, and mosque are so often turned against one another, this refreshing website seeks to help us recognize our similarities and celebrate our uniqueness.

ChristianGays.com: For the Christian lesbian, gay, transgender, or bi-sexual who has felt frustrated and rejected in his or her seeking, this website opens the door to growth in a caring, accepting Christian community that has shared the same journey.

You Are A Miracle: This tender affirmation of your place in God's creation is a healing balm in a world that too often seeks to diminish. (You must have flash installed to view video. Click to install flash.)
