“There are . . . not a few who live what might be called provisional lives, in which the choice is constantly postponed. Such people’s hearts are not in their present lives, for they are always waiting for the time–which never comes–when their true lives will begin.”
Paul Tournier, The Meaning of Persons. New York: Harper & Brothers, 1957, page 207.
I am a husband, father, and grandfather. The southwestern Pennsylvania is currently home, though I've called several other places home before this. I maintain a YouTube channel of Bible teaching videos and a podcast of Bible teaching audio. I like to make things out of wood and other materials. I like taking photographs and use a lot of them in my blog posts. For thirty-nine years, I served as a pastor of churches in Pennsylvania, Ohio, and New York.
