~ Rev. Dr. Will Willimon, Bishop, United Methodist Church

“As Fred is fond of saying, participation in this ministry might just bring a sparkle to our eyes as well. And he adds, who can resist?”

~ James T. Laney, President Emeritus, Emory University

“Either listening to or reading what Dr. Fred Craddock has to say always makes me think about how people can make the world a better place for all people.”

~ Bob Lemon

“These columns/meditations/observations/stories are, like all of Dr. Craddock’s words–written or spoken–illuminating, amusing, touching, and absolutely true, even when they aren’t. They are the gospel and grace.”

~ Rev. Mark Westmoreland, Senior Pastor Fayetteville (GA) First United Methodist Church

“If in reading the Bible you find justification for abusing, humiliating, disgracing, harming, or hurting, especially when it makes you feel better about yourself, you are absolutely wrong.”
