A beginning...

It's lonely here at the moment, but I expect more and more of you to show up now that I've issued the blog invitations. You all know the minimum expectation for this blog: each of you must compose 8 substantial posts over 16 weeks. But the blog will be whatever we collectively make of it. I hope it becomes a place where you can share your reflections about our readings--and share your reflections about the reflections of others as well.
