Going to Mullinix: Mostly Gentle Tales about Mostly Gentle Folks and Curious Critters, Paperback
Descriere
""Going to Mullinix"" was my grandfather's response every time someone asked where he was going. I rode with Pa-Pa in his dark green Ford pickup throughout the little community of Chip, N. C. as he transported feed and biddies for his chicken and egg business. I was 10 to 12 years old at the time and ""Mullinix"" became for me an ideal, safe place from my childhood challenges and fears. When I became a pastor, I adopted ""Mullinix"" as a symbol of that place of authentic discipleship to which serious followers of Christ aspire. So, ""going to Mullinix"" became for me a metaphor for the ""pressing on"" journey of attaining higher levels of discipleship. This is a collection of personal stories from my more than 45 years as a pastor. I reflect on how each of these stories or events, (mostly involving people or animals), have served as ""signs"" directing my walk as a disciple.
