An Initial Offering

I've resisted writing a blog for a long time, mainly because most of my thoughts are derivative and have been better said by someone else somewhere else.  That's not false humility.  I synthesize well; I don't imagine well.

However, last fall, I challenged the congregation I serve to read the Bible cover to cover over two years.  In support of that challenge, I offered to provide a blog with reflections on the readings.  This is my attempt.

Because the blog had its genesis in a Bible reading challenge, most of my posts will be about consecutive readings from the Bible.  (We're in Exodus right now; no sense starting with something easy!)  I suppose from time to time, I may add other reflections; I suspect they will have a lot to do with congregational ministry.  I won't rule out the occasional thought about other things that spark my curiosity, either.  I hope someone finds something useful here!
