Exploring National Parks

National parks matter in ways we might not always acknowledge. They’re sanctuaries for wildlife, living classrooms for Education, and playgrounds for adventure. But most importantly, they remind us that some of the best things in life aren’t man-made—they’re grown, formed, and preserved over centuries. Unlike private reserves or exotic destinations that might cost a fortune, national parks are meant for everyone. Many have entry fees that are low or even free. They invite people from all walks of life to step into nature without needing fancy gear or expertise. In an increasingly disconnected world, national parks reconnect us. As our Experts in this area of the site explore, National Parks offer the kind of grounding experience you can’t find scrolling through social media. Here, among towering trees and echoing canyons, you remember what truly matters.

Beyond their beauty, national parks symbolize hope. Hope that future generations will have unspoiled lands to roam. Hope that nature can recover when we protect it. Hope that our fast-paced, tech-driven lives can find moments of stillness. If you’ve ever felt small while standing before a towering cliff or found peace beneath a canopy of trees, then you’ve already felt the magic of these precious places.

This week singer-songwriter Patrice Peris joins Dave to flip the script on building a music career. That question musicians always get – what’s your backup plan? – is a terrible one, because Plan A was never required to land where you first mapped it. Through COVID, a cancer diagnosis, and a bone-marrow transplant she now calls a rebirth, Patrice kept asking what each detour was teaching her and never stopped writing, landing sync placements on Netflix, HBO Max, and The Voice along the way. Want to break into sync licensing yourself? Get resourceful and bullheaded: take a class, build mu…

by Mark M. Bello As the Supreme Court wraps up another historic term, much of our attention is focused on blockbuster decisions still to come. Birthright citizenship. Transgender athletes.

But before we rush ahead, two immigration decisions handed down last week deserve our attention. They may not have generated media frenzy, but they reveal a great deal about the constitutional philosophy of today’s Supreme Court—and they raise a larger question about the kind of cou…

They ran out of seating in the Fellowship Hall after worship service, so I grabbed a piece of cake and found a spot for my drink on the windowsill. A couple came and joined me and after some small talk the conversation turned toward, of all things, knee replacement surgery. Sheri recently completed her first knee replacement, and Mark was looking at his second sometime later in the year. I was curious about the process and wondered how they felt about not only the procedure, but also the recovery. “First off, don’t listen to social media. Yes, there was a lot of pain, but when I foll…
