My father’s terminal illness transformed my life

My dad’s terminal illness impacted my faith and my life in a major way. From November 2022, when he got so sick, until we lost him on February 1, 2024, I was just going through the motions of trying to be helpful to my parents. Since they were in Florida and Maryland, spending so much time with my parents meant that I was neglecting my life in New York, especially the not-for-profit I was running. I ended up retiring from the position, which coincidently, happened exactly two years ago today.  

Leaving that job and losing my father provided me with the time to do what I am doing now.  This started with reading the Bible cover-to-cover and has grown into so much more.  I will spend a little time over the coming weeks talking about this transformative time in my life and how it got me to where I am now.
