Everyone wants peace and hope.
As we grow older, we feel a special urgency to make peace with the past and to discover hope for the future.
In doing this, it's important to be thinking more and more about eternity. Let the gospel be the lens through which we act and move and have our being.
I John 4:19 is the key to our motivation for life:“We love because He first loved us.”
The Rev. Dr. Paul F.M. Zahl is a retired Episcopal minister and author, and served as dean of Cathedral Church of the Advent in Birmingham, Alabama for 10 years. His wife is Mary, and they have 3 grown sons, all serving in ministry. Paul and Mary recently moved back to the Birmingham area.
In this season of retirement, Paul is actively waiting on God to send him the work the Lord has him to do, which currently includes mentoring younger ministers, and one-on-one meetings in a ministry of encouragement.
