"Sometimes I wish my minister would read his column instead of
the sermon "
That's the kind of response Plain Dealer columnist Terry Pluto
draws from devoted readers of his faith column. Although best known
as an award-winning sportswriter, Pluto has also earned a
reputation--and a growing audience--for his down-to-earth musings
on more spiritual subjects.
This followup to his first collection, "Everyday Faith," offers
28 all-new thoughtful essays on faith in everyday life--practical
topics such as choosing a church, lending money to friends, dealing
with jerks, sharing your faith, visiting the sick, even planning a
funeral.
Perhaps it's because Pluto doesn't claim to have the answers
that so many readers are drawn to his writing.
"Real faith writing should be about real life," Pluto says. "I
write as much about my failures as my triumphs, because that is
what a life of faith is about. It's often as much suffering as
celebration, with lots of mundane, everyday stuff in between. I
write for people who may have been hurt by someone in church,
people who have been discouraged by one who claimed to speak for
God . . . I write for people who have found contentment in their
faith but want a deeper relationship with God."
