“Jesus rebukes every us versus them, erases every in versus out, banishes every elite versus outcast, and calls us to a strange Kingdom living and loving where Calvary levels all. To disrespect any person is to slap the face of Jesus and to slander the person’s Creator, God.”
Leonard Sweet, Rings of Fire: Walking in Faith through a Volcanic Future. Colorado Springs, CO: NavPress, 2019, page 39
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.
