After teaching for thirty years and serving as secretary for the local GED program, I retired to have more time to write and ride my horse. Peppy is now teaching horsemanship to a young girl, but my computer is still capturing stories.

These stories have been written over a period of more than twenty years while pastoring in the same small, rural church. Here on your screen, I share my understanding of the love of God with people I will never see and encourage others to take the Bible seriously, if not literally.

When I preached my first story sermon, one of my parishioners commented, “That was an interesting sermon, if that’s what it was.” A year or so later, she told me, “The sermons where you tell a story are my favorites.”

Unrelated short stories were published in “The School Magazine” in Australia and four anthologies from the Nebraska Writers Guild: Voices from the Plains, volumes III and IV, Flashes from the Plains, and Voices in the Wind.
