Sunday morning service

Drawn by the fact that Prof. Otfried Hofius was preaching on Mark 4:35-41 (what a great message he gave), I visited Tübingen Stiftskirche today. We sat ourselves down and I noticed a certain Jürgen Moltmann sitting in the row in front of me. I've been living near Tübingen for almost 6 years now, and I've met Moltmann and others of his ilk in person before, but I still found the experience bizarre! Perhaps I should have grabbed my wife's lipstick and asked him to sign my chest ...

I've always wanted to meet Moltmann. I'd have grabbed the lipstick.
