Reseña del editor:

This book is a collection of sermons, reminisces, and prayers, by a former Lay Leader of a small rural non-denominational Christian chapel or church. The author had no formal training. He was asked to fill in for the preacher who was afflicted with cancer of the larynx. The author joined another country church, this time of an organized Christian religion (United Methodist Denomination).He was greatly inspired by the minister, the religion, and the people, and decided to take the Lay Leader training offered by the Conference. Just about the time that he was certified as Lay Leader he was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. Since this is a neurological disease, and it affects the speech, and enunciation he could not properly preach or deliver a sermon. Hence it gave rise to this book, the written word in place of the spoken word.

Biografía del autor:

Clyde Weber was born in southwestern Pennsylvania in 1931 when the Great Depression was still young. He spent his early years developing a growing interest in science and nature. Now retired, his career was that of an applied research chemist, in petroleum oils, glyceride oils, resin development, for industrial coatings, in that order. He also spent thirty years of his career in the development of radiation curable coatings for ecological compliance. His avocation was the operation of an ornamental tree and shrub nursery and he has had a lifetime interest in the outdoors, backpacking, camping, ecology, and gardening and all agricultural subjects. It is his belief is that Science and Religion are compatible, with identical objectives that of searching for truth and increasing the knowledge of man. Clyde also possesses a deep interest in religion and its relationship to all of the above interests and as part of an unfathomable universe we owe God respect, worship, and love. "The further the spiritual evolution of mankind advances, the more certain it seems to me that the path to genuine religiosity does not lie through the fear of life, and the fear of death, or blind faith, but through striving after rational knowledge" Einstein
