History. It can be kind, or it can be harsh, but it is always truthful. No one can alter or spin the story of one's life. It simply is. These are the stories of ministry. There is light to be found in these stories but darkness as well. Unfortunately, we live in a broken world with broken lives and broken homes, but Jesus heals our brokenness and gives hope – now and eternal. Sometimes that hope comes late to us in this life but with Jesus there is always hope. Without Jesus hope is a made up illusion that can only be found at a carnival or on television.Take this journey and you will have a glimpse – just a glimpse – of what it means to be a pastor to so many people over a lifetime – the lifetime of 'The Pastor of Howard County'.
