Today is Day 193 of my Piney Woods Church Project. I announce this, not to prompt awe, but to set the stage for a confession. In 193 days, I had never noticed a large rock off on the side of the road, and how the late afternoon sun cast shadows of grass blades onto the stone. It was humbling to make this discovery, and to begin to appreciate all that I am still missing — all that still awaits to be explored and experienced. And this is only a single dirt road, less than half a mile in length. How could we ever claim to know the world, were we to have a billion lifetimes to live in it?
