Dear friends,

I have spent the entire weekend wrestling with a paper on Jesus' mission and death and the author's methodology in Latin American liberation theology. It's ghastly, but it's done. Friday afternoon, Friday night, Saturday, Sunday. Husband even took the boy to evening church activities so I could keep slogging away. But, ghastly or not, it's completed, and now I must set my face toward the take-home Christology exam due a week from now.

One bright note: I completed ahead of schedule an exegesis on Luke 15:11-32 for a sermon I am scheduled to preach in class a week from Wednesday. This will allow me to focus on the actual sermon.

Oh, boy, is it Monday .... I JUST this second realized that my trusty reading glasses are at home. I'm usually so faithful about making sure I have a pair in my book bag, but they visited my purse late last week and haven't returned. Well, worse has happened.

Grace and peace,
Beth
