Rock from the Garden of Gethsemane |
Rocks…
A petrologist is an individual who studies rocks. A geologist is one who broadly studies in the entire field. I simply collect rocks.
I began collecting rocks as a young child. For years, I gathered Indiana rocks collected in a brown paper bag.
Now, if I know a friend is planning a trip, I gently ask, “Will you bring me back a rock?”

If rocks could tell stories, what would they tell?
Reading the Gospels us gives us an accurate account of what happened in the Garden of Gethsemane. Reading the Gospels continues to transform my life.
