Just a little different


OK, here's been the last couple of days...waiting in line. Moving to another line...waiting in that line. At least I had been warned to expect this. I've taken drug tests, had my teeth checked, received vaccinations, been issued equipment, listened to briefings, and filled out a large tree worth of paperwork.

For the most part, my chaplain class is looking forward to getting out of the classroom. I'm sure by this time next week, we'll want to be back in the air conditioning.

For the last two years, I've kept a cell phone, Bible, business card, with me. My supplies for ministry look a little different now. In addition to the gas mask, there's a kevlar helmet and body armor. I've had some friends in the pastorate that might have needed all of the above for deacons meetings in their churches.
