What have I been up to lately? Besides raking a zillion leaves and climbing on the roof to clean out gutters and walking my dogs and teaching a Sunday School class and going to church and watching the World Series and Michigan football and reading several books, you can tell a lot about my week by what ends up in print.
Here are links to the articles I wrote that were published last week — one of the more interesting weeks in a while, as far as my job goes. Hope you enjoy the stories:
* Story about Aaron Shapiro of Perrysburg and his work in South Sudan.
* Article about Wiccans/witches preparing for Samhain (Halloween).
* Lecture by the Rev. Stephen Sprinkle, a gay Baptist minister from Texas and professor at Brite Divinity School at TCU.
* Interview with John L. Allen about his new book about Archbishop Timothy Dolan of New York.
* New Center for Religious Understanding opens at University of Toledo.
* Former Sylvania man produces a movie, Jerusalem Countdown, based on John Hagee books.
