Wonder

In case you've been wondering why I haven't been writing much lately...

What I'm Thankful For

Something Worth Reading

I find myself hard-pressed for much creative, enticing thoughts these days. With a baby on the way any moment, a wife to love and support, middle-schoolers to teach, long-term lesson plans to write for when the baby comes, a church to continue planting, friendships to maintain, an ever-aging body to keep in shape--all these balls in the air leave room for little else.

But I'm ok with it.

This is not an apology for not writing more. Just a reason.

So, if you'd like some scrumptious food for thought, go check out Dave Schmelzer's recent post. It's approaches like his that keep me inspired.

Song Of The Harlot

This early 90's tune by the Violet Burning been in my head for a few days now. And not a bad one to have get stuck, for a number of reasons. Take a listen. Ignore the cheesier of the images. And the Dutch subtitles, too...unless of course you speak Dutch.

Enjoy. Let it move you.

Yep. I Feel Appreciated.

It's been kind of quiet here lately. Sorry. I've had other things on my mind.

I have wanted to say this though: I love my church. Turns out there's such a thing as Clergy Appreciation Month. And thankfully we have a church that notices such things and wants to do something about it. :o)



Sometimes a simple card and gift are like beams of sunlight through clouds.

Thanks, Greenleaf. We love you all.
