I have a thousand things to do today...most of them fun. But it is a full day. I have a sermon entitled "What Did You Say?" to tinker with. You can go here for the lectionary text. I am focusing on the Jeremiah passage and the Gospel. The hope is to get it done today so that I can take it a little easier tomorrow. Tomorrow is my birthday. I have one meeting scheduled...a last minute planning meeting for the annual meeting at Community Church. Otherwise I can kick back a little.

Trish's show opens tonight. Handbag is remounting Caged Dames. I cannot make the opening night show as I will be at a banquet hosted by another theater group, Quest Ensemble. Theater everywhere! Tomorrow evening I will house manage for Caged Dames. Y'all should come!

The other thing I have to do is finish my planning for Sunday's adult Bible study. We have been exploring a broad-brush history of the creation of the canon The Canon of Scripture: How? Why? Why not?. The conversation has been lively. Last week we explored the first three centuries of the church, gnosticism and the like. I am curious about how the persecutions, the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem etc encouraged the rapid deliniation of the canon. This week we'll look at the Constantinian and "post-Constantinian" era...about 1000 years or so until the Reformation. Heh. No big deal. ACK! It should be fun.

Well, there you go. Enjoy the weekend.
I will likely not post on-line.

Oh, please forgive me for not saying this earlier. Thank you all for your well-wishing and commiseration over the theft. I hope that the bank will have everything back to us soon. Your kindness, however, was much appreciated.

Peace and all good things to you!
