Howdy!
Some relevant bits ...
I'm currently learning to embrace my identity as a child of God. But past and present identities include:
- Sporadic writer aspiring to occasionally consistent levels. 📈
- Emerging 35+ pro pickleball player. 🤣
- 20-year stretch in full-time church ministry (across two churches). ⛪
- Early retiree (this year at 44). 🙈
- AI pegs me as "an intellectual soul with a servant’s heart." 🤖
I add a touch more color on my newly minted Now page.
