He has the most amazing life, but just keeps moving further and further away. Do we smell that bad in Tennessee? See you soon brother. This is my big brother, who I am proud of.

As others have noted, this is a neat and different sort of thing you're doing with your blog. And, I appreciate the kind and encouraging words from those who've responded. Brian, I was in Vicenza from January 83 until July of 84. I was a paratropper in the 1/509th (which eventually became part of the 82nd). I don't know the people you mentioned. If they are part of our fellowship, I wouldn't have met them. I was a very different, wild sort of a person, back then. I thank God that I was allowed me to live through that foolishness, giving me time to turn around by His good grace! Ben Dee,

Ben, I hope you'll keep on with the Church of Christ minister thing for a long time. We need more like you. Your assessment of the position, though, is dead on. Dee, I like the interview thing.

I have preached for 30 years and will be leaving that role to work fulltime with my son, hopefully for the final chapters of my life. Your response to question 8: "What do you least like about your work?" hit the nail squarely on the head! That's exactly why ministry is so frustrating in our faith heritage. I've attended who-knows-how-many seminars only to come home and realize I can't use a word of it in our system. I quit going to church seminars several years ago for that reason. Thanks for sharing your "non-talented" life with us. Ben: I’ve seen you “around” in blog land and always appreciated your comments and insights.
