Tomorrow I will be going under a general anaesthetic. I have had increasing knee pain since just before Easter. Turns out I have a tear in the posterior horn of my medial meniscus cartilage on my right knee (for all you medics out there). Anyway, I feel like a professional footballer having to have an arthroscopy to repair it. This is, of course, the closest I will ever get to being a professional footballer!

Anyway, I would appreciate your prayers for me, and for my poor wife who is having to care for our five kids without as much help as I would like to give her.

The good news is that I have already written a bunch of posts that, thanks to my editorial assistant, will hopefully mean that there will not be any interruption to blogging here. Eventually I will complete this series on the atonement, honest!
