Tagged

So my buddy Andy B. tagged me with this meme.

Here are the rules:

1 - Pick up the nearest book of 123 pages or more. (Just grab one, no cheating!)
2 - Find Page 123.
3 - Find the first 5 sentences.
4 - Post the next 3 sentences.
5 - Tag 5 people, who will post theirs in the comment section.

From "The New Chrstians" by Tony Jones:
"The hand gropes for an invisible lever; it waves slightly, and the fingers twitch. The hand is connected--by an arm that needs to be propped up by the other arm after fifteen minutes-- to a body that leans forward in its chair. Atop that body is a Brain full of Bible trivia and minutiae."

Though it does not ask for it...I want to share the next few sentences to help contextualize this:
"That Brain is most often connected to a mouth,, and the mouth longs to speak.
When I point to the hand, the Brain unlooses the tongue. 'Earlier you referred to a woman pastor that you work with. Isn't the Bible clear that women are not meant to be pastors?'"

I tag Molly, David, Karen, Clergyfreak, and anyone else who wants to play!
