Friends:

I have been drinking less coffee--and blogging less.
I probably will blog more now that the second semester is beginning.

Sunday I am off for Richmond to teach the course "Introduction
to Practical Ecumenism" for a week during the January term.
This is an intense course that I have enjoyed teaching at Washington
Theological Union and at Virginia Theological Seminary. I think that I will
enjoy it in Richmond, for our three member schools there, as well.

Hope your own semester is off to a good start.

Peace,
john
