Beginnings…

Well, here is the first post on the new blog. For five years now I have been blogging (or rather journaling) with LiveJournal. So the blog thing is nothing new for me, however this will be my space to write more about ministry, spiritual direction, and the emerging church.

I chose the title “Wanderlust” after some consideration, although I may change it (decisions, decisions!). Wanderlust is borrowed from German, and for us English-speakers, means a yearning to travel or wander. While wanderlust is formed of two German words (wandern: to wander, and lust: desire), the word isn’t used as much in the German language. In German, this yearning within me might better be translated as, heimweh, or homesickness. My hope is to share the inspirations, longings, and homesickness for God through the eyes of a postmodern spiritual director and servant-minister.
