“His Eye is on the Sparrow…and I KNOW He watches over me.”

“The moment a man realizes that he is only a pilgrim in this world, that finally he has to die and to face God, and that there is all eternity before him, his whole outlook on life changes.” –

Martyn Lloyd-Jones

Hebrews 6:10        
John 15:5                       

Hi! My name is G.W. A retired pastor/teacher to inner city homeless/drug/alcohol addicted.

I was ordained a minister of the gospel of Jesus Christ and set apart to be a missionary to inner city America, particularly to the homeless and drug/alcohol addicted.

I’m early retired military (Army Airborne). And now retired from ministry as a pastor/teacher of the Bible, including full-time duties as a substance abuse counselor at a Christian faith-based inner-city rehab and homeless shelter (which I simply refer to as The Mission–its original name). It was both the most challenging and most gratifying assignment I ever experienced. Preaching the Word of God to men who knew their lives had reached the bottom of the barrel, and watching them receive it, was more than joyful; it was humbling. For I had been where some of them were.


I’m finding the gold in old by living one day at a time. Taking each day as the gift from God it is, I’m finding many more hidden gems among the stones.
