Nervous

I am attempting at getting in the habit of writing more frequently. It is something I want to do while we are in France to chronicle the journey. I love writing but hate the discipline that needs to be a part of developing it. I have really felt over the last few months that I need to be disciplined about developing this aspect of myself. Part of my issue is that if I really get into a topic, I can get incredibly focused on it and write for hours. Hence, my issue: as sometimes I do not want to get started because I think that I will be occupied for hours. So, I am trying to break it down. To see what can flow in fifteen minute segments. It will also help address my procrastination about doing something that I really do want to do.

Some days I get very nervous about what we are about to embark on. I am reading so much lately in seminary about post-modernism and post-Christendom that I really am begin to wonder what we are being prepared for. We are going, after all, to the land of Descartes..to the place where rational thought began to take hold and shape popular culture. What implications does this hold for us? What are we going to learn while living in post-Christendom Europe? How are we going to use it to best live out some monumental changes that God is making in the life of the Church?
