About the Name

You may be wondering why I chose the name, "All the Good" for my new blog. The title comes from one of my spiritual mentors, John Wesley who once said,

Do all the good you can,
By all the means you can,
In all the ways you can,
In all the places you can,
At all the times you can,
To all the people you can,
As long as ever you can.

Now that I am free of the day-to-day obligations of a parish minister, it is my desire to be used of God any way I can. Like Paul I desire to be "poured out" (Phil. 2:17) as a "living sacrifice" (Rom. 12:1) for God.

I intend to take Wesley's motto of conduct above, as my own. Father, in your mercy help me.
