I'm not sure I've ever had a case of writer's block. However, I've had "writer's burnout" - times when I've been depleted by the demands of projects and deadlines. An elixir of rest, time with people, and perseverance in the work is usually the cure. The proportions of each ingredient vary depending on the case and circumstances. There is no precise recipe.

Hi Michelle. The chapter in your book that deals with Jesus's genealogy is provocative to me, because I think the two different genealogies (Luke and Matthew) are "both Joseph's," and simply contradictory. So if I were to teach a class using your book, I would talk about how our personal genealogies often are put to apologetic ends--wanting to prove a Mayflower descendant, etc., then later prove to be partly invented?
