Welcome!

Hello! Welcome to HeLeadethMe.net. If you’ve arrived here intentionally, thanks for visiting. If this is an accident, then thanks for visiting. Either way, I hope you’ll spend a few minutes exploring.

I am the pastor at Liberty Spring Christian Church in Suffolk, Va. This is my second career; I spent most of my life as a journalist, reporting and editing for newspapers in Southeastern Virginia.

This blog gives me an opportunity to share some newspaper- and magazine-related content, some of my favorite photographs and, I hope, a lot about my faith.

The name of the blog comes from the King James Version of the 23rd Psalm, which, in my opinion, stands as one of the most beautiful poems written by man, whether you’re a believer or not.

But for those who follow Christ, the Good Shepherd, this poem is so much more than a euphonious collection of words. Our Good Shepherd guides and protects us, He comforts and corrects us, and He waits in Heaven to share the bounty of His table with us. All we have to do — all we can do — is follow as His obedient sheep.

May God richly bless you.
