Finding our way to The Way one situation at a time. I don't know how great it will be, but I expect it will be interesting, and I look forward to it going on past all reason because wonder is just that way. Are you coming or not?
Which is the greater miracle: that all of this is the result of a meticulous Grand Plan (The Plan of Salvation), with everything worked out in the finest detail, like the number of feathers on every bird at any time-- or that nothing is? That everything is the result of randomness and accident, with circumstances spinning off circumstances from the beginning/end of nothing? Which is the greater miracle?

I'm retired, and still finding my way--but now, I don't have to pretend that I know what I'm doing. I retired after 40.5 years as a minister in the Presbyterian Church USA, serving churches in Louisiana, Mississippi and North Carolina. I graduated from Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary, in Austin, Texas, and Northwestern State University in Natchitoches, Louisiana. My wife, Judy, and I have three daughters and five granddaughters within about twenty minutes from where we live--and are enjoying our retirement as much as we have ever enjoyed anything.

Or something in between? Nonetheless, it is miraculous!
