You know you're spending too much time in the study

• When thou speaketh to thy children and helpmate thusly.
• When you start seeing the evening paper laid out in chapters and verses.
• When you answer your home phone, "First Community Church."
• When a list of genealogies moves you to tears.
• When you start parsing the verbs in Golf Digest.
• When you comfort your 3-year-old, who just skinned her knee, with "That will make a good sermon illustration."
• When you consider all the mail addressed to the church as personal.
• When you count going home for lunch as a pastoral visit.
