| Introduction | I'm 51 yo, and a Bishop of the Catholic Apostolic National Church, a Communion of roughly 4 million members worldwide. I'm also married, and when my health permits, I support myself with secular employment. No Ivory Tower, insulated and isolated from the problems and concerns that real people struggle with daily and often get beaten down by. I have come to believe that faith requires us to get our hands dirty in the service of others. And I thank God daily for the three men who have served as my mentors; Francis of Assisi, Thomas Beckett, and CS Lewis. |

The squish of mud between your toes; how would you live your life as a frog?
I'm not sure there's an easy answer to that, because "It's not easy being green." But I do know that I would avoid French chefs.
