Musings

My internship with Community Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in Lincolnshire, Illinois has come to an end. However, I will be staying on with this community of faith as the Sabbatical Minister while Kory Wilcoxson, the Senior Minister, is on Sabbatical from June 1 to September 7.

I will post my sermons, newsletter articles, as well as theological and personal reflections which may include book reviews or random thoughts. Please comment, I love conversation.

Chicago!

Well, I've made it to Chicago, a city of many names which include the Windy City, Chi-town, and the Second City (just to name a few). I was welcomed by the short runway of Midway and a dreary drizzle of rain. Although the weather seemed unconcerned with my arrival, I still feel very excited to be in a city filled with new possibilities and continual challenges. I believe school will be daunting, rigorous, and rewarding; and city life will be large, loud, dangerous, and fun. Through all of this, I look forward to connecting with an academic and religious community here at the divinity school and throughout the city.

My immediate concerns are to finish unpacking, find a close banking site, figure out the mass transit system, and then think about visiting churches.

But for now, I intend to eat. Until next time, Grace and Peace.
