For Wilshire Baptist Church (12/16/16)
In the weeks following a presidential election that brings a new administration into office, there is much talk about whether or not the transition will be peaceful. In our own lives, far away from the seat of power, we too crave peaceful transitions. The event that stands out in my memory came in November 2002 – the most chaotic month of my professional career and one of the most meaningful episodes of my spiritual life.
