ABOUT THE AUTHOR
I am a fellow traveler just like you on this incredible journey we call life. I am 53 years old. I have been divorced for two years. I am single. I am the son of Dean and Lou Dean Franklin. My father was a preacher and my mother a homemaker. My parents divorced when I was 22. I am a preacher too. I have two grown children, a son and a daughter whom I love very much.
I am writing because I need to write. I am not an expert on anything. I don’t write claiming to know any answers to life’s questions.
I am writing because I need to express what is in my soul. I do better when I write and talk through my life. In some ways my writing is selfish. In other ways it is risky and vulnerable.
The content of what you find written here are my own ideas, thoughts, and feelings related to this wonderful mystery called life. I approach the subject matter from the perspective of faith in God. It is my bias and my belief. What you read here are some of my own musings related to where I have been, what I have experienced, and some observations related to what I have learned and am learning.
I am no authority on anything. With fear and trembling I write these pages. If they help anyone along the way then that is great. If they don’t, then read them and just move on with my apologies.
The overriding guide along the path we will take together will be that if God is in the middle of nowhere then God must be in the middle of everywhere. It will be my hope that together we will discover who God is, where God is, and what God is seeking to do in the middle of where ever we may be.
Thanks for coming along. Companions along the way are always what makes life most interesting.
