About me

Gender	Male
Occupation	Disabled minister
Location	United States
Introduction	My name is Ronald Ramsey and I started this blog as I prepared for disability because of painful and debilitating small fiber neuropathy. The pain and limitations forced me to leave a ministry of 32 years in the United Methodist Church. During those years we served 6 circuits: Wells Springs, Cawood and Flat Hollow. Morrison Chapel and Washington Chapel. Asbury. Church Hill First. McKendree. First Jefferson City. My wife has been a school music teacher and choir director. We have three children two of whom live near us.
Favorite movies	I like older black and white movies best of all. I especially like old science fiction movies that are so bad they are good.
Favorite music	I love most kinds of music from Orchestral to some clean rap. I grew up on country and western music and in Junior High a music teacher helped me discover the beauty of Orchestral music. In worship I like any style as long as the words are meaningful.
Favorite books	Over the years I began with western and Civil War books. I still like to read Civil War books, especially diaries. There are many Christian authors I have enjoyed including C S Lewis, Phillip Keller, Phillip Yancy, Timothy Keller and Dietrich Bonhoeffer. Two books that impacted my life were "A Shepherd Looks at Psalm 23" and "Practicing the Presence of God".
