Tomorrow, Monday, October 21, I’m going to begin 100 consecutive days of a practice that’s important to me but that I often let drop out of busyness (actually fear), or because I’m not good enough at it (a.k.a. fear), or because it might not go anywhere (again, fear), or because it might take me somewhere scary ( . . . fear). If you want a community that will encourage you to keep at something, anything, for 100 days, please join me!
The thing I’m going to do is make art. What is yours?

So… immediately I framed this for myself as a productivity engine. I need to not do that. But find it difficult to land on anything that feels far enough outside my regular flow. Especially given how ministry uses everything we do/think/experience/encounter as fodder for our work. Must the homiletic eye fall on EVERYTHING!? … Okay so typing that let the thing pop out: I have a box full of unlabeled “rough idea” cassette tapes from a bygone writing era and recently bought a machine to convert them to digital format — should they surface any truly “lost gems.” I’ve been eager to get to this l, and terrified of it. I’ll listen to one tape a day, which may or may not be productive, but will most certainly take me on some much needed life review after the headlong rush of the last few years.
