I'm starting my Master of Divinity in the fall. Both of my parents also went to seminary, so I'm enjoying talking to them about it and borrowing books from them. The one on the left is from my mom and the one on the right is from my dad, and it's such a joy to read them and see where my parents underlined passages when they were at a similar place to where I am now. 🥰 Walked to the lake to read today. #BookFitnessChallenge #BFC @wanderinglynn

VanChocStrawberry Great family history! Where are you attending, if I may ask? 5y
Caterina @BarbaraJean @Chrissyreadit @Megabooks @ness @TheLibrarian @BookwormAHN @DivineDiana @wanderinglynn Thank y'all so much for the kind words!! ❤️😊 @VanChocStrawberry Pacific Lutheran Theological Seminary in Berkeley, California! It's ELCA Lutheran, and part of the Graduate Theological Union. 😊 5y
VanChocStrawberry I don‘t know a whole lot about Graduate Theological Union, but I have a friend who got his doctorate from there and then worked at two different seminaries in Berkeley. I hope it‘s a great experience for you! It‘s an amazing area, so I hope you get to live there, too. 😂 5y
Caterina @VanChocStrawberry What a cool connection! I'm excited because I love being part of the ELCA, but the seminary being part of the Graduate Theological Union will let me take classes from other seminaries too, even ones that aren't Christian. And I am THRILLED to move to Berkeley!!! I've lived in the Carolinas for most of my life and will consider Berkeley to be as much my classroom as the seminary. 😊 5y
tpixie @Caterina how wonderful reading your parents books! You‘ll learn about them in a different way! Congrats on getting into seminary! Enjoy all the experiences! 5y
