After taking a few years off, I'm back in seminary here in the Twin Cities, Minnesota, at United Theological Seminary. What a wonderful place to be! Surrounded by friends old and new, I'm exploring my call to Unitarian Universalist ministry with friends, classmates, and the world around me. I am watching for the spring and feeling it unfold within myself.

The Minister's Playground

I have put a fair amount of thought into my intentions for this blog. I want it to be something uniquely me that transcends stereotypes and commonality.

This shall be my forum for higher thought. It shall be the drawing board for future sermons, no matter how future that possibility may seem. It may be a bit high-winded at first, but my hope is that it shall settle into the truest expression of my self, and by self I include all aspects that bridge the intellectual, emotional, physical and spiritual.

My goal may be unattainable, but I see no reason not to try. This is a point in my life when I feel a need to pull things together into a fluid understanding of self-identity and intention. Only when I have come to know myself fully can I feel ready to push onward to my ultimate goal of formalized religious leadership.

For most, this won't be an interesting blog to check regularly for wacky updates and opinions. This blog is foremost for me and my personal growth. Sorry to disappoint.
