Telling the Story

Today we worshiped at Gilmanton Community Church where we have standing/membership. It was a joy to be with familiar faces and worship in familiar ways, and we brought greetings from Prague.

We had our first snow yesterday, and it changed our world! Everything is more beautiful now: white birches, blue sky, even the swamp is a lovely white.

I have finished reading BLUE LIKE JAZZ by Donald Miller, a Christmas gift from our daughter. It is an interesting book. I wonder how my UNYP students would respond to it. It would be fun for a book group. Part of the reason it was so interesting is because the writer lives in Portland Oregon and almost all geographical references are to Oregon, the State we lived in for 6 months this year.

I also finished reading the Bible through today, slugging through the Old Testament histories at the end of the year. I have written two liturgies on our Global God, one from Psalms and the other from Isaiah.

It is New Year's Eve. What will 2007 bring?
