I’ve had three interactions with retired Presbyterian ministers in the past seven days, only one of whom I actually know personally, and I spent a good bit of time talking about a fourth one in my Sunday sermon. I’m reminded that the ranks of retired clergy are full of some of the most decent people you’ll ever meet.
Thanks be to God for them.
Amen!
Amen! And thanks be to God that the ranks of active clergy are equally full of truly decent people.
Hey Rocky,
I will make bold to guess I am one of the “retired” ministers noted in this post…
I would be glad if you thought of me, as I think of myself, not as retired, but as repurposed….I am repurposed as a “doulah” I talk people through giving birth to their babies.
Rex…
