I didn't mean to suggest that yesterday was my birthday. I got this from my daughter Loni's blog. I assumed everyone would read the date of my birthday in the box. Not for another 2 months.
I've been in full time ministry for over 30 years (one year of youth ministry and the rest in the pulpit) with four churches. I'm married since 1976 to Pat. I have three grown children and three grand sons.

Favorite Quotes
***"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." (C. S. Lewis)
***"Our churches have turned into theaters and our preachers have turned into witty motivational speakers with high entertainment value," (Thomas G. Long)
**Too often, Preachers think that they have to make the Gospel more interesting to the world instead of allowing an already interesting and powerful Gospel go about remaking the world. Can preaching once again be revived to its proper end? (William Willimon)
**Habit is habit, and not to be flung out of the window by any man, but coaxed downstairs one step at a time. (Mark Twain)
**The fundamental problem with most of us is not deficient self-esteem but inadequate divine-esteem. (Daniel Block)
**If my sermon becomes another product that makes you feel a little less miserable this week, then that, it seems to me, is a little less than the gospel. (William Willimon)
