faith famly home – Launched on the anniversary of 25 years of ordained ministry

25 years ago I was ordained as a Presbyterian minister (PCUSA) I remember that day as the end of a long journey to become a minister.  The journey started in Covina California where I was nurtured by my home church.  I was 29 years old and at the end of the special ordination service I was able to say the benediction.  My first words “Grace abounds.”  God had led me through and I’ve been faithful to that call ever since.

This purpose of this blog is to relfect on faith in ministry and life.  I want to share thoughts on the family of faith and my own family.  I will write about being at home, in my own home, at home with family, at home with Christ.
