Inspiration

We spent the morning hiking around Duluth and Two Harbors, both sites along Minnesota's north shore of Lake Superior. The photo above captures the inspiration for the title of our blog, and it was found on the Tischer Creek Trail, a gem to be found right in the middle of Duluth. The title also captures the spirit of my sabbatical, which will be an exploration of what God, who joins us in the waters of baptism, is doing in some of the less cultivated places in our lives. I hope you will join me here from time to time to see how Evie, Sarah, Nathan, and I are doing on our journey together!

  2. Funny! I totally agree with Lapper Guy...although I doubt Jim would think that. Something about women and bikinis being a dangerous combination ;). The pics are breath-taking, and right in our own back yard too! Enjoy it while you can.
