Still Writing and Planning Another Segment

The writing is going fairly well.  Two chapters are done and it is coming together slowly but surely.  As we speak Ingrid and I are also planning the last segment of the sabbatical, which is a self-guided tour of most of the Martin Luther sites.  We leave Oct. 15 and will return on Nov. 5. We will be visiting Wittenburg, Eisleben, Eisenach, Erfurt, Augsburg, Coburg, and other sites as well as taking the opportunity to visit some SDA churches in Germany.

Once underway I will be making daily posts as far as internet connections are available.  You know how that goes.  We are looking forward to this part of my study leave and especially the fact that we are doing this part together!!!

I hope you will be able to follow along once again and in the meantime, keep checking back to see how the book is going.

Long Time No Hear?

I apologize for the long absence.  I've been inundated with funerals, but I have truly been working on the book.  Progress is being made!  In just a month I will be leaving with my wife to go to Germany and do a self guided Martin Luther tour.  Ingrid has many cousins in the area that we can stay with and do day trips to the various sites.  I also hope to visit some of the SDA churches in the areas and pick up some insights as to what is happening there.

Please don't lose heart in following the blog.  I'm really having fun reliving the trip as I write about each one that I visited.  I must say it is a lot more comfortable to make the trip in the comfort of my study as opposed to the seat of the bike, but not as much fun!

May God bless each one as His Kingdom draws near.
