About this listen

I am honored and priveledged to have spent some time with North Carolina Diocese Bishop Sam Rodman. We discuss his memory of being baptized as a child at four years old with his two sisters, being the middle child. This serves not only as vivid memory of the church but the community that was present in Blanford.

He shares a recent baptism story and how the child began to cry, but then grabbed the cross, which calmed her down. It is the small things that move us during such a celebration. When Bp. Sam was eight years old he visited his grandparents and they took the Sunday of from Church, he decided and insisted to invite the family to his own service with make shift vestments that resulted in good family humor.

Rich experiences came from All Saints, Hadley and the Bible Study at a pizza parlor in town. He has been blessed to learn from or be part of a team that offers Bible studies that nourish him. His mom would share in a moring devtion similar to Forward Movment call Our Daily Bread. Bp. Sam shares his cadence around prayer and other practices.
