He was seventy-one. Retired machinist. Married to the same woman for forty-six years. Two grown daughters, both doing well. By any reasonable measure, a good life.</p> <p>He sat in the chair across from my desk and didn&rsquo;t say anything for a while, which I have learned to allow. People who come to talk to a pastor on a weekday afternoon are almost never in a hurry. They have been carrying the thing for a long time. Another minute won&rsquo;t hurt.</p>
