An Inch At A Time: Reflections on the Journey
Sister Joan Chittister famously said, "We are each called to go through life reclaiming the planet an inch at a time until the Garden of Eden grows green again." Reflecting on that journey -- a blog at a time -- is the focus of this site.

About Me
A cradle Episcopalian second generation Dodger fan ENFJ native of Los Angeles I was ordained in 1996 and have the privilege to serve as a Senior Associate at All Saints Church, Pasadena, as president of Integrity USA, convener of "Claiming the Blessing" and a member of the HRC Religion Council. My family consists of my partner, Louise, our dog, Luna, two cats (Birdie & Baby) and two sons: Jim (serving in the US Army) and Brian (pursuing his own career goals in Bowling Green, KY). My life in the church has included everything from Junior Altar Guild with my Aunt Gretchen to my “obligatory young adult lapsed phase” to a tour of duty on the St. Paul’s, Ventura vestry where I also worked as parish secretary to a life-heart-soul changing experience as part of the Cursillo community to serving on my parish ECW Board to seminary at the School of Theology in Claremont to associate/day school chaplain positions at St. Mark’s, Altadena and St. Peter’s, San Pedro to Executive Director of Claiming the Blessing to my current parish position at All Saints Church. It’s been a long and winding road and the journey continues: an inch at a time.

I saw this movie last year with a dozen people from my congregation. Simply wonderful. I cried tears of frustration AND of joy watching the trailer just now ... thank you for the link!

Ordered mine after seeing the movie in October. Can't wait to receive and show it. Trying to convince the local college to schedule it but no luck so far. I'm acquainted with the campus pastor and hope she will consider it once she has seen it.
Thanks for this. My partner teaches a college orientation class. He'll love to show this.
God's peace.
