The New Year, 2018, has brought along its share of
nostalgia, hope, and a bit of retrospect as to how far down the road I have
come. Some of the looking back could be
due to a pretty significant health event that I endured this past July although
thankfully I have made a near full recovery.
Even though I spent a number of years working in the medical field and
was constantly made aware of the fleeting nature of life in others, it was
brought home to me in a far more serious way when I was on the other end of a
surgeon’s care. Perhaps another reason
that 2018 is a significant time for me is because it is the year that thirty
years ago, I along with my wife were compelled to make a decision that entirely
changed the direction of our lives. In
1988, I attended my first Because of the Times, which is a minister’s
conference hosted by the Pentecostals of Alexandria and led by Senior Pastor
Anthony Mangun.
