The City

I love working and living in the city. I really do. My ministry is so clearly here. It's like Frederick Buechner wrote:

the "place God calls you to is where your deep gladness and the world's deep hunger meet."

Working with ICI this summer I am getting a sense of that. ICI is Inner City Impact, not to be confused with Inner-City Teaching Corps, which is the teaching program that I am here for these two years. I just got back from a camping trip to Indiana Dunes with 12 kids from ICI. It was hysterical!

oops-- more on this later. It's time to go to church!
