We had a wonderful trip to Maryland last weekend. Osprey Point looked just like picture I posted before we left. We returned Tuesday night, and I've spent the week pondering the lofty issues we discussed: globalization, religion in the modern world, integration vs. fragmentation, exclusiveness vs. syncretism, and alternative modernities. When I get it all sorted out, of course, I'll post all of my conclusions. (Don't hold your breath!) There were 18 of us discussing these issues and hearing lectures by Dr. Os Guinness in a beautiful house on the Chesapeake Bay. It was fabulous! We met some wonderful people and feel like we've made some real connections with folks with whom we want to maintain contact. One couple that we've come to know and love during the past year even got engaged there last Sunday! It was a precious time.
Now that the rental car company has Fed Ex'd our camera back to us (thanks Thrifty!), I can post some pictures. :)

Great discussions!

We thoroughly enjoyed getting to know Dr. Guinness.
It was truly a set-apart time. It was a great combination of mental exercise and physical rest, something we needed more than we realized. God is faithful!
