Are you sure you have the right person? Hi Georgeanne –

I don’t remember having my tooth pulled. Are you sure you have the right person?

You write very well, and I am looking forward to meeting you soon. I have talked to your wife (the day you had a tooth pulled) and were not up to a phone conversation, and I am looking forward to you visiting our congregation. I am on the committee for hiring a pulpit minister for the Clifton Church of Christ. I also share your love of drama and am involved with the local theater group in Clifton and the school's One Act Play. We need a minister. I think you would like the community and be very pleased with the school system. We have had a state award winning band for the last 20 years. It is tradition here. We have about 130-140 members in the marching band. As I told your wife, we are a progressive congregation. We have three very progressive elders. We did have four, but one died recently. I hope you will consider us. Since I am an English teacher, I appreciate you ability to relate to literature and explain its symbolism.

Lipscomb's position on politics certainly does suprise! Some viewed him as a sexist (during the sufferage movement he opposed the right of women to vote). He was to a degree--but he was also consistent in his belief. He didn't think Christian MEN should vote either! Hey James,

It looks great (the True Story stuff). My tradition is Church of Christ/Christian Church. I'd like for you to take a look at a different approach to politics: David Lipscomb and James Harding. These two guys were prominent Church of Christ editors and College founders in the late 1800s and early 1900s. They have a very different view of politics. This isn't a crass commercial, ok? But take a look at the book KINGDOM COME by Dr. John Mark Hicks and Bobby Valentine (it's not very thick) which explores the legacy of these two men. I don't think you'll agree with them, but I think you'll get a very interesting perspective. This is just a fyi. Keep up the good work. I look forward to reading more of your stuff. And I've already ordered True Story and Based on a True Story! Blessings! I’ve just discovered your work. It looks great (the True Story stuff). My tradition is Church of Christ/Christian Church.

I have just returned from our mission in El Salvador, and I am convinced more than ever that there are many things that only the Church can accomplish with regard to the poor and the oppressed. You may not know I have some political experience, so I look at politics and particularly presidential politics with a different perspective. Whenever you need a Starbuck's, I'd love to get your thoughts about some things. Happy Easter. Scott Furrow James,
