Sometimes change arrives like London buses, nothing for a while and then several all at the same time. My life currently resembles the all at the same time scenario. Got a couple of things going on that I can talk about and several more that I can neither confirm nor deny and especially not talk about.

A reasonable number of people know that I am no longer working at SWTC. While not my wish to move on, it was in the Lord's will, so I turned in my notice and tried to make sure all outstanding obligations were handed off to appropriate people before riding off into the sunset. At the same time I am also in the process of "un-pastoring". At the January board meeting, I let the board know that I wished to step down as pastor. This did catch them by surprise and while there was no actual wailing or gnashing of teeth, they did eventually persuade me to agree to stick around until May, so my last day will be 5th May 2024. So much for the ol' 30 days notice! :-)

Going forward I will be concentrating on my next chapter of ministry and maybe a little IT work here and there to help stretch the funds. The Lord has been calling me to more of a writing ministry and I've been procrastinating for several years, but finally swallowed hard and said yes. I have a couple of self-published books already (one was even carried by my ministerial organization's bookstore for a while) so writing is not new to me, but it's time to step it up and scale it up. I will post updates here and I have a Facebook Page called "Dodgeville Bible Project" that I may resurrect for making it easy to get updates via social media. (The Queen of All She Surveys does not care for the name of the page, so it may get renamed if she catches me during a moment of weakness.)

In subsequent posts I will cover what existing material I have and my current (and always subject to change) plans going forward.
