Two years later...

A little over two years ago, I posted my first reflections on this blog.  A lot has changed since then:
  • I postponed graduation (and therefore transition) for 8 months.
  • I accepted a position at the school where I've taught and worked for over five years.
  • I completed the first stage of my research, with 171 of 312 survey recipients responding.
  • I wrote 160 posts on this blog.
  • I've written over 100,000 words on pastoral transition, including reflections on my own transitions and on my research.
  • Over 9,000 hits have registered at this blog, with an average of several hundred per month.
  • I started an occasional podcast to complement the content on the blog.
  • I've begun preparing a proposal for a book that would include most of the work on this blog, focusing on helping seminarians transition into ministry.
A lot has happened over the past two years.  Thanks for reading and sticking with me!  I look forward to continuing my conversations with you about pastoral transition.
