Book excerpt: In this spiritual autobiography, the author focuses on eight segments of the life and work of Jesus, their application to the ministerial vocation in the world today, and the particular mission of the Presbyterian clergyman over the past seventy-five years. Devout in his faith and beliefs, the author maintains a unique perspective. "I perceive my life, as well as the lives of others, in a rather different vein than does society in general, he says. I sense my life and the lives of others as 'God breathed'-life, and lives, coming from God. And, in a sense, the Word and words made flesh in each event." From his specialized viewpoint, he reveals the role of God and ministry in his life-a life that, in the end, will span no more than the space of two of God's breaths.
