After over 40 years as an environmental lawyer, I developed a strong interest in the “nuts and bolts” of environmental preservation.  When I retired, I had time to step back and look at the “bigger picture.”  Rather than focus on legal details, I observed the wonders of Creation, the beauty of God’s gift to His children.  I worked to obtain Certified Lay Speaker status, to, among other things, preach about Creation Justice.  I will be doing so in my home church on April 19th of this year
