Episode notes

It may be just one person's speculation, but the anecdotal evidence is in, and it is compelling. I spent a significant amount of time, during my Sabbatical through Lilly's Clergy Renewal Program, living with an Amish family in northern Indiana at a small little town called Nappanee. If you want to put brakes on your hyped schedule, take a wormhole trip into a dimension of the mid 1800's. The Amish swore off technologies or modern society as distractions from the purity of their pursuit of God. Sadly, over time, it became a religion of works righteousness. I never imagined how much I would learn and laugh in this time. This will be a two or three week podcast to endeavor to know and understand one another better.
