(1) That I probably never have to read Milbank.
(2) For the culinary inspirations of my facebook friends.
(3) That Jason and Jessica wanted to host Thanksgiving dinner. Otherwise I would be probably be approaching the apex of a three or four day modified stationary panic right about now.
(4) For the provocations of Amy Laura Hall.
(5) For the privilege of preaching, because the astonishing richness of the Word is never so present to me as when I interrogate it for the Good News it has for me to proclaim to this people, this week.
(6) For other blessings too numerous to list.
