About This Book

A pastor's life and ministry have many poignant and humorous moments, yet such stories usually stay within a small circle of family and friends. This veteran pastor shares such moments of grace and gratitude that many will enjoy through reading and reflecting. Every life has a story where "threads" of connections form a wondrous mosaic in a life of unexpected surprises and joys. An archive of ministry memories is shared in this volume, which is truly summarized by the word "blessed"--blessed to share a life of unending pleasures in ministry where pastors and parishioners remember and celebrate, often with laughter the episodes of grace encounters. Humor, especially, is God-given grace.
