My major hobby is weight lifting, not body building, but just working out with weights, to keep in shape, for more than fifty-years now, I have been lifting weights. I also enjoy Roller Skating very much; in fact I met my wife, Lynda Roller Skating.
What my spouse (really) thinks of my sermons
The sermons my husband gives always are a delightful surprise for me. I never read them or listen to them in advance because I want to experience them just like other parishioners. It never ceases to amaze me how the Holy Spirit reveals the Scriptures and they come alive in each and every sermon. Needles to say, I feel very fortunate to be married to my Pastor husband.
