So, I have been struggling to post regularly on the blog.  Maybe its the fact that I have six seminary classes going while doing summer prep at church.  Maybe its because I am just days from graduation, so motivation is an issue in all of my life.  But I am looking for habits that will help restore discipline in my life.

Starting tomorrow, I will begin a new blog series called “The Messiness of Life.”  The series will tackle a chapter of Ecclesiastes each day.  I have been engaging this book a great deal through my Theology and Film class and have found it very interesting.

So, as I work towards my final paper in this class, join me here every day for a new post.  I won’t discuss every verse or issue – I will leave space for you to jump in and explore yourself or push back on what I had written.

As we all engage a time of unexpected financial strain and come to terms with our past experiences, wondering if other people would treat us the same if they knew the skeletons in our closet, I think Ecclesiastes is a great book to engage the messiness of our lives and this moment.

See you every day for the next two weeks.
