{"product_id":"9781936912278","title":"This, That And Some Other Kingdom Stories","description":"In 1995, while living in Kingsport, Tennessee, I was contacted by Becky Whitlock inquiring if I might be interested in writing a regular religious column for the Kingsport Times News. Becky is an editor for the paper and had evidently come across some of my writings from my local church newsletter. I agreed to do so and have enjoyed a wonderful relationship with the paper and the larger East Tennessee community ever since. There have been seasons in which I have taken an editorial \"breather\" but, for the most part, I have been writing regularly since that time.\u003cbr\u003e One of the things I determined early on in my writing for the paper is that I would predominately write about things of which I was familiar and that was the life and ministry of the church. I have doggedly avoided partisan politics, both religious and secular, through the years and I have attempted, at least, to be an encouraging voice for those whom I served through the print media.","brand":"Parson's Porch Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50053104435440,"sku":"9781936912278","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781936912278_p0.jpg?v=1784749015","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781936912278","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
