So, I posted a while back about answering the call to preach.
My education at the Bible Institute begins Sept. 27th.

That's great Linger
The life of every man is a diary in which he means to write one story, and writes another; and his humblest hour is when he compares the volume as it is with what he vowed to make it.

Linger, I have no doubt that you'll make a very fine pastor! You've already walked down one of the worst roads anyone can.
Many people feel more comfortable talking to a minister when their life is shattered by I. It's nice to know that in a small corner of the world, they'll be able to find wise counsel from someone that lived through it and built a good life.

I am so glad you are following this path for your life.
Innocent people generally want to get to the bottom of things. Guilty people usually want the discussion to be over as soon as possible.
