Examining preaching/chaplain/spiritual care.
I stopped preaching and being a chaplain in 2009.

I blamed experience. I had been preaching for over ten years. There was nothing new to discover, learn or share
I blamed aging. I was older. I believed my memory slipped
These things might be true. I am investigating a new angle
