Advent II

Gestation Advent II Dumbo

Driving to an appointment this afternoon, I wondered: how long is the longest gestation in the animal world? My memory said elephants. Roughly two years. My memory was on it.

So my book has taken longer than an elephant to gestate?! Well, how appropriate! My book points out a very large elephant in the living room of Baptist life: the ways gender shapes Baptist identity. So it’s time to deliver that story . . .

  1. Light is just appearing on the second day of Advent here in the UK. Keeping you in prayer as you have the privileged role of midwife to the delivery of the story.

    1. Thank you, Christine. I think and hope it is a story that will invite engagement from many people – precisely because of its particularity. I’m grateful for your support! Hope your writing is going well also!
