    About this ebook

    Those elements of life that encounter us in people and events, in memories and nature, in the life of conviction and hope form the spawn of these poems. They mean to lead us again into life's happenstance afresh and with nuanced insight.

    William Flewelling

    I am a retired minister from the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) living in central Illinois. Led by a request from Mildred Corwin of Manua OH when I arrived there in 1976, I long developed and led a series of bible studies there and in LaPorte IN and New Martinsville WV. These studies proved to be very feeding to me in my pastoral work and won a certain degree of following in my congregations. My first study was on 1 Peter, chosen because I knew almost nothing about the book. I now live quietly in retirement with my wife of 54 years, a pair of dogs and several cats.
