It was perhaps 18 years ago that a couple of people suggested I should write a weekly blog. I did not know what a “blog” was, but Ponder with Pastor Bill came out of that idea.
It has been good for me to have this opportunity, and I hope it has been helpful to others. I have no idea how many people read it.
My declining health makes it necessary for me to give up ministries that I enjoy, and this is one of them. Thanks for being a part of the journey.
