Description
Summary:WIDELY PUBLISHED author and preacher- and Century editor at large- William H. Willimon will step down this summer after eight years as bishop of the North Alabama Conference of the United Methodist Church. Like all struggling sinners, I pray that God will forgive me for the sins of commission and omission in my episcopacy such as my unfair criticism of Glen Beck, the Institute for Religion and Democracy, the governor of Alabama, contemporary Christian music, children's sermons, Joel Osteen and- wow, come to think of it, I've really got a long list of sins.
