Let’s think about that for a moment. In this country, we are living at a time of nearly full-employment. Although interest rates have headed back up some recently, we are still enjoying some of the lowest interest rates our country has seen in decades. When I bought my house in 1990, I was

WHY DO YOU DO THAT?
I’m thinking of a small-town church in upstate New York.
They’d had a rector in that church for over thirty-five years.
He was loved by the church and the community.
After he retired, he was replaced by a young priest.
It was his first church; he had a great desire to do
