A Young Man’s First Encounter with Grief – The Fount Account
November 27, 2023
Growing up, my childhood never had any encounters with grief at a significant level. Though I would hear about old family members who I had little knowledge of passing away, I would never know what that grief felt like. That would change this year. On November 1st my grandfather took...

Thanksgiving to Whom? – The Fount Account
November 20, 2023
As a believer, I wonder every year how unbelievers can celebrate Thanksgiving. It seems to me that in order to celebrate Thanksgiving, one must identify to Whom one is thankful! And don’t try to tell me that someone can be thankful “to the universe”! Thanks that are given require that...

One Door Closes – The Fount Account
November 13, 2023
This past Saturday, November 11th, the California-Pacific Annual Conference met in a special called session. The agenda was short: (1) Approve a budget for 2024, and (2) Vote on churches seeking to disaffiliate from the UMC. The Fount was not one of the churches voted on for disaffiliation. Because the...
