Fortunately his situation was rapidly corrected by the families’ moving to Columbia, SC, where he spent his childhood years. There he was introduced into Bible Belt Baptist traditions, including Wednesday night prayer meetings, verse memorization, Sunday school, and fearfully long Sunday sermons always causing his family to be at the end of the line at the cafeteria lunch line following services.
His college years and subsequent army service in Vietnam provided him with the excuse to neglect the truths that are foundational to right living. Fortunately his first, present, and only wife introduced him to Methodism via her own family tradition. The methodical, studied approach to learning about God and God’s intentions took root. The Wesley tradition of reflection followed by action produced the thirty-year Sunday school teacher you, the reader, find in these pages.
