Thank you for your scholarship, your homework, your studious habits, your taking this seriously. Thanks for your curiosity, your thoughtful late nights, your careful explanation.
I love what was said at a conference – I think the last conference Rachel mediated – “get off your ass”. Stop journaling about your deconstruction and go help someone who needs help. I loved that.
Anyway, what does this all mean to you? What are you doing because of this story you’ve built a life around? YOU TWO! What do you care about? What are you angry about? What right now (seriously right now) is helping you be the best version of yourself? Scholarship and theology and interview are very ‘arm’s length’. Bring it in.
