Dear Family and Friends, Would you like to know what retired pastors do in their spare time? I don’t know about others but this one spends his spare time pulling weeds every other day. A neighbor who lives upwind has grown dirt in his front yard for decades. True story, I’m not making this up.

Dear Family and Friends, As I began preparing this week’s devotional, God spoke – through a news story about a trusted interpreter who was charged with stealing millions from the athlete he once worked for.
