“The world is full of miserable places.  One way of living comfortably is not to think about them or, when you do, to send money.” (Tracy Kidder, Mountains Beyond Mountains)

I’m currently reading Mountains Beyond Mountains and find myself constantly replaying this line over and over in my head, as well as feeling the ache it induces in my body.  It screams of the need for I/incarnation, and seems a fitting accompaniment to this Advent journey and beyond.

Good to see all of you who were able to make it out to The Porch last Wednesday.  Our next meetup will take place on Wednesday January 6, 2010 at Vintage Faith (All Saints Lutheran building) in Browne’s Addition at noon (bring your own lunch).  Finally, here’s the book that Steve mentioned, which is available through The Book Parlor.
