but with an essay question, i could always talk my way through (around?) anything.

because you had a teacher who didn't care.

Thanks for the note on my blog. I like the direction you took. (I wasn't sure what you were going to do with the photo.) The heart is deceptive, and we rational people are rarely inclined to take it seriously. When it comes to faith, I think that's safe. Not always the best, but safe. I'm thinking of the lyrics in Kendall Payne's song "Aslan": "He's not safe, no he's not safe / Are you tempted now to run away? / The king above all kings is coming down."

beautifully honest... and approachable.

april, you're welcome. matt, thank you as always for the encouragement.

Mac! Hi there. I saw Brian Habig at Presbytery last week and it reminded me of you. He said you had a webpage and so I looked ya up.

Hope you are doing well. I am pastoring a Church in South Carolina now. It has been a wild couple of years for me, and pastoring a small Church wasn't the way I thought it would end.

What are you up to?

chesed and shalom to you.

chuck, brother, good to hear from you. i'd love for you to e-mail me (junkmailforblankets@hotmail.com) and let me know what you mean by "the way I thought it would end." i'm still in school, hard as that is to believe. living in spokane, wa, getting an mfa in creative nonfiction. and watching movies when i should be studying.
