I had an outpatient surgical procedure last week, and I’m still very much in recovery mode, taking it easy. Rather than doing a lot of original research and composition for this post, I thought I’d reference some earlier work to share an encouraging point.

A couple of years ago I posted some thoughts on death, which included some thinking on the intermediate state–that period of time between our death and our resurrection. I noted the joy we’ll experience at being delivered from the brokenness of life in this world.

That thought takes me back to earlier work, some narration I did for a video directed by Rich Streeter, part of the stage production crew at BJU. It’s a story of the construction and subsequent history of BJU’s Rodeheaver Auditorium, the school’s primary venue for opera and theatrical productions. I thought Rich’s vision for the project was excellent, and I was happy to be given a chance to participate.

The core message of the half-hour video is summed up in the final 2 minutes. It’s greatly encouraging.

But the whole thing is very much worth watching.
