The role of a spiritual leader is basically to let go and to help others let go. I could say more about that on a Friday morning, but after reading what Hank Stuever wrote for yesterday’s Washington Post, I can’t do better than that. It speaks not only to the loss of the Edison of our time; it also speaks to the grieving of our congregations. Hope you’ll take the time to read it.
Letting Go

A great article! It spoke to my heart as I think about some hard assignments with congregations in our presbytery. At a meeting with a struggling group, someone wisely pointed out that the windshield is a lot bigger than the rear view mirror for a good reason. Thanks for pointing us in the direction of letting go and looking forward.
