prophets and youth pastors...

Isaiah 20:3-4
Then the LORD said, “Just as My servant Isaiah has walked naked and barefoot three years for a sign and a wonder against Egypt and Ethiopia, so shall the king of Assyria lead away the Egyptians as prisoners and the Ethiopians as captives, young and old, naked and barefoot, with their buttocks uncovered, to the shame of Egypt.

2 gut-reactions to reading this passage...

1. boy am I glad I'm a youth pastor and not a prophet.

2. perhaps Isaiah was a youth pastor... a pioneer in youth ministry... inventing the moon. If only he had a church van!

i really do always read these, though i never comment. but this one made me laugh.
made scones over the weekend.
ate them in the car.
don't think they're nearly as exciting as sitting in the dining hall and eating them with coffee, but it was fun.

was talking about you yesterday. it was good.
