While delving into Brian McLaren’s A Generous Orthodoxy, I am encouraged to find that someone else has put into words what I’ve been feeling lately.
Writing for me has always been a way of discovery and questioning: I write not to stop my mind from thinking, but because I can’t stop it. Writing (whether in a journal, in an e-mail, on a Web site, or through an article, book, or sermon) at least produces some fruit from the labor of compulsive thinking.
