Robert Martin BishopI grew up the pastor's kid in 1960's Bristol, Connecticut. There was a church on every corner representing every branch of the Christian faith imaginable. Almost every church had a school associated with it. The divisions that existed between the chuches were at the very core of what defined social norms - including which side of the street you walked on. My father chose a career in faith over being a hockey player. My father took his calling seriously. He felt he was on stage 24/7. One day out of the blue, my father took down his skates and skated with us on the pond in the park. I was amazed at his skills. Then he hung up his skates and never skated again. My father became a Bishop in the Lutheran church and eventually took an assignment at a church in ----- Germany. My father spoke German, my mother did not.

I now live in Horse Country with my wife and an assortment of pets. Read More Read Less
