I will attempt this blogging thing once again…after 3 years! I hadn’t realized it had been that long. I hope in doing so that I can get back into writing once again. I did a tremendous amount of writing when I was in college and seminary. After 10 years of school I think I went into shock and extra studying and reading kind of went out the window! I still study obviously, and I still read…it is ingrained in me…but I read mainly novels…novels about things that don’t look like any remotely like my life and the challenges of doing two churches 🙂 Mysteries, action drama, spy novels… Yes, it is an escape…and no, I don’t feel bad about it!

I am going to start my writing come-back with my thoughts about a Lenten study I found in my office last week. It is called “Bread in the Wilderness” by Kenneth Carter. I really have no idea what it will be like except that I was deeply challenged when I read the introduction chapter “Spiritual Famine or Gospel Feast?” Hopefully the rest of the book speaks to my spirit as much. I hope to get my thoughts together on that first chapter today or tomorrow at the latest.

Shalom
