I wasn't raised in the church. I didn't mean to go to seminary. I didn't mean to be a preacher. I think God has always had his hands on me. Communication has higher value for us than contemplation.
Information is in greater demand than reflection.
There was a time when only doctors wore pagers and the only person who carried a telephone around with him was the president of the United States, in case of nuclear attack. Now we are all that important. We can be found anywhere, at any time, by anyone who needs us. I am involved in something so urgent it cannot wait.
