Somewhere In The Middle Of God I Got Lost: Journeys

About the Book

Somewhere In the Middle of God, I Got Lost, is a book of short stories about the meaning of life. The stories are the question marks of living as experienced in love, hate, joy and sadness, life and death. All the anecdotes are based on experiences and observations by the author over a 40 year career as a clergyperson. Each story (vignette), tells a story about life from a different perspective. Some of the stories are personal, and revealing about the author. Other tales are funny and light hearted. Many of the stories deal with the mystery of pain and death. The narratives some times reveal no meaning only the whisper of possibility. The author gratefully acknowledges his wife and editor, Delia Grace Jennings and the cover designer, Jeffrey Scott Bardzell, Son Found.
