Still Listening
Letters on loss, healing, and the mystery of being alive —
from deep in the woods.
” Man, as a being of sense, wants his life to make sense, and he has found it hard to believe that it does so unless there is more than what he sees—unless there is an eternal order and an eternal life behind the uncertain and momentary experience of life-and-death.” The Wisdom of Insecurity -Alan W. Watts
Welcome. I’m a retired Methodist preacher, counsellor, thinker, and forest-dwelling writer. For ten years, I wrote “That’s the Spirit” in the Weekend Post, and a preacher resource blog on this site and Textweek.com
Now, I offer online personal counselling and direction rooted in quiet listening and deep presence—what I call sense-making therapy.
What is Sense-Making?
Life gets tangled. Sometimes you need a space to pause, reflect, and listen. I work with individuals and couples who seek clarity, healing, or simply someone to walk the path with them.
