Stop and think for a moment about all of the things and people that you have to “take care of” on any given day. Children, parents, spouses, friends, the stack of papers on your desk at work, laundry, grocery shopping, getting the car fixed. The list can become exceedingly long. How many of you include yourself on that list? Or better yet, how many of you include your faith life? I’m not usually a betting girl, but I’d be willing to bet, not many.

To be honest, even though I work for the church and consider myself a spiritual person, it wasn’t the first thing on my “list.” So, when I came across the Theology-on-Tap schedule for this summer, I told myself it was OK to be a little selfish. In fact, it’s important!
