A letter to my son, who is a testament to God's wild goodness

Oh Jonathan, you turned four years old this month! Amazing how time flies so fast. You are my little guy, and I love you, although there are times when you drive me up the wall. Like yesterday. And the day before that. And the entire month of July, for that matter.

I still remember the day I first heard that you were coming into our lives. Your mother was going into surgery for her mastectomy, and her doctor called me in to the surgical ward because she had to tell me something important. When I heard that, my heart dropped into the pit of my stomach. In fact, I almost vomited. You see, the prior year had taught me to expect the very worst from life, and from God: miscarriage, burglary, cancer, health insurance cancellation. And so that morning I braced myself for another kick to the teeth, perhaps news that the cancer had spread, or that the surgery couldn’t be performed.

But the last thing I ever expected to hear was that mommy was pregnant, and that you were in her belly. I was at an absolute loss for words, something that doesn’t happen to your father often. It was in that moment that my understanding of God completely collapsed. I realized that I didn’t understand God in the least, a God who could allow your mother to suffer so terribly, but also would bring such an unexpected gift into our lives. I felt like Job standing before the whirlwind, my haughty theology eroding and folding in upon itself in light of the sublime mystery of God and His ways.

So thanks, Jonathan, for completely destroying your dad’s theology.

Fast forward a few months, and I was with your mother at the Sculpture Garden of the National Mall. I got another call from a doctor, this time from a wonderful cancer ...

Cut out Saturday mail Re: “Coronavirus threatening delivery of the U.S. mail,” April 10 news story

Striking a balance Easing the restrictions on COVID-19 risky activities is like setting a speed limit on our roads. The higher the speed limit, the greater the freedom to drive as one pleases, and the greater the number of statistically probable deaths. There are those who would advocate for unfettered freedom notwithstanding higher death rates, and vice versa. The political and economic challenge is in finding a socially acceptable balance. Although one might differ from our elected leaders on where to set the limits, or how fast to proceed in adjusting those limits, there is going to be a trial-and-error period during which data and societal feedback will trend toward an acceptable trade-off between freedom and harm. Let’s cut our local leaders some slack as they attempt to strike a balance.

Poisonous rhetoric Re: “Inside state’s growing anti-shutdown movement,” April 27 news story and “Polis responds to lawmaker’s criticism of stay-home order,” April 16 news story In a world of social distancing, words are often our only means of communication. I am disconcerted that those in the anti-shutdown movement use them to divide our community. The chairman of the Colorado Republican Party, Ken Buck, draws an inaccurate parallel between feared Marxist regimes and Gov. Jared Polis’ actions to carefully preserve public health and production at the same time.

Appeal from an isolated, grieving mother Dear stay-at-home protesters,

Pay cut, Congress? With so many people unemployed and hurting financially in so many ways, I think it is time to ask Congress to take a pay cut to free money for individuals and small businesses that need help.
