SHRINK WRAP, SNOOZE ALARMS, WILD CARDS AND SHERRI NOLAN
  

   I wrote these essays for a church newsletter. Perhaps you'll find something of the lighter touch of grace in this collection. These essays constitute something of a personal statement of faith. As my faith is not yet complete, neither are they.

But you're welcome to them, muddled, broken and incomplete as they are. Perhaps you'll see something familiar in them. Maybe you'll find a chuckle here or there, or it could be you'll just shake your head in wonder that anyone could be so dense.

Please feel free to copy them or print them - use them as you wish, but kindly observe these requests of mine:

  
  1. Please don't change them. If you can make it better, write your own stuff - seriously.

  2. Please include at the bottom of every copy, in whatever format, digital print or other, the following:

  3. Please e-mail me at home or send me a postcard of your hometown to me at:

    Jeff Whitmill

    Chaska MN 55318

    Let me know how you used the material.

Oh, one thing more. The views expressed in these essays are entirely my own and should not be blamed on any of the denominations, church groups, congregations or institutions of higher education which have so graciously accepted and supported me throughout my life, all the while laboring in vain to bring me to my senses.

That's it. I hope you enjoy the essays.
