Father Forgive Me
Preachers' kids are the worst!' This is an allegation we've heard all our lives. It was usually one of those heathen deacon's children hurling the accusation our way after we'd escaped blame for a problem we'd caused. Like livestock, PKs are branded for life. People know at first glance that we are trouble.Father, Forgive Me: Confessions of a Southern Baptist Preacher's Kid is a humorous, self-deprecating memoir of a preacher's kid (PK) growing up in the South. Do you want to know what really goes on behind the closed doors of a parsonage? Do you ever wonder how preachers nickname their parishioners and talk in secret code about the members of their flocks? Have you ever wondered how preachers' wives help keep the family on an even keel? For all who have ever wanted to be a fly on the wall in a minister's home, this is the book that will expose it all-including what happens when a minister's wife shoots one of her own children!
The architectural brilliance of Father Forgive Me resides in its meticulously crafted prose. Kim Haynes Johnson has delivered a manuscript that transcends its genre, offering a profound reflection on the human condition that lingers long after the final page is turned.
