关于作者

Jerry is a happily married practicing Catholic, living in Central Massachusetts (New England, USA). He is actively involved in a variety of both being and doing ministries. To be present to both God and others by waiting is a difficult challenge, as it is his nature is to react by finding solutions to every problem. His attempts to do so would not be possible if he did not take time for prayer. In all honesty, his life experiences far outweigh his degrees in computer technology, business and in pastoral ministry. His observation is that his education in knowing the language of business and personal beliefs along with his doubting Thomas within, appropriately mingles the human and divine nature of who he is. He has found that he quickly burns out if he attempts to fight every single wrong he observes.

Jerry has realized that his specific commission means he must responsibly identify and use his God given gifts. He tries to share his belief in love of God and neighbor in as appropriate way as possible, especially knowing he has a choice in accepting God’s will. He loves to write of the ordinary times of God’s peace, love, and actions. He strongly believes that each of us is capable of tapping into an internal desire to know unconditional love.

Jerry appreciates and understands that what he writes can be radically different from the belief of others as he does lean on his experiences and background of practicing his faith. He strongly believes that whatever your faith might be it can help shape you into becoming a person willing to be kind and compassionate. He only asks that like he does for you, that you regulate your reaction to his writings by accepting another person’s belief that has the commonality of “God is love.”
