If you came to this page, hoping for a theological reflection, I'm happy to provide! This post at my theology blog will fit the bill nicely.
On this Easter Sunday, I have cleaned the bathrooms--more of a Maundy Thursday task, to be sure, but my Maundy Thursday was consumed with other tasks that kept me away from the house for most of the day.
Later today, my spouse's brother and his wife will be arriving. Luckily, our residential area is part of a church camp, so we were able to get him a room over there. We have a sleep sofa in the room which is also where I work, and tomorrow, I need to make a presentation for my seminary class. Having guests stay with us is just not doable right now.
Later today I will make a cake to go with the rest of the strawberries--yum. It's not the traditional Easter bunny cake, but it will taste of spring and warmer days ahead.
Soon we will get in the car and go across the mountain to Faith Lutheran in Bristol, Tennessee, where I will preach and preside. It feels more leisurely because we didn't have to be there before the service to do Confirmation.
In the middle of all of this, I am also writing my last paper for my Worship and Digital Technology class; I have to make a 10 minute presentation tomorrow evening, which won't be hard, but I also need to be ready to turn in the paper. Then I have 72 hours to turn in a reflection.
After that assignment, I have two more papers to write and I am done with my MDiv degree. As when I was in the home stretch of classes for my PhD, I found myself thinking that I might never write an academic paper again.
Let me bring this writing to a close--time to get ready for the day, the more public facing part of the day.
