“If we do not transform our pain, we will most assuredly transmit it—usually to those closest to us.” Father Richard Rohr

Happy Sunday morning to you, and thank you so much for welcoming The Sunday Paper back into your inbox. I’ve missed you, and I hope you are doing well. I truly do.

I want you to know that I believe this newsletter to be a holy and special place. A place of reverence. A place of hope. It’s a place to get informed and inspired, but more importantly, it’s a safe space where many, myself included, come to share our stories of joy, grief, pain, and transformation with the hope that our words may help others heal and make the world a better place.
