A not-so-random sample of some things going on in the world today. This blog is typically a place where I turn my thoughts inward, but recently I have been convicted by the sense that my time in academia's lofty towers is little more than self-gratification unless it has something to do in the end with all this.
May we stay aware, stay open, and above all, be thankful for daily simple blessings as we seek to live well and purposefully in a shattered and complicated world.
