Productive time in Philadelphia
It has been a remarkably productive/positive week for me out here on the Right Coast. This is surprising in some respects, particularly given that it is spring break in Harvardland, and I would have assumed the week would therefore have been more or less forgettable in the wonderfully relaxed sense that a break often is.…

hittin’ the hump
So as of this afternoon, I am officially 50% done with my MDIV, which means that I am halfway done and a year and a half away from possibly being an offically ordained spiritual guide. Whew. And I have to say, that man this feels good! The past few months have truly been challenging and…
