I’m getting ready for my conference debut this morning. I am going to take a few minutes after I’m finished getting ready to sit & review my paper, think through some possible discussion questions, etc.

We received an email from one of the panelists last night who had difficulty with travel arrangements and won’t be able to attend. I feel bad for her, because I know she’s been planning it for a while, just as I have. Consequently, we may have additional time to talk about our individual papers, so I want to be prepared for Q&A.

If you read this before 8am CST, I would greatly appreciate your prayers–for a calm spirit, clarity of mind, and whatever else the Lord lays on your heart to pray for me. Thank you so much!
