Showing results by narrator "Glen Farell" in All Categories

When author Linda Farell learned that her neighbor, Ron Latham, had been given only a few weeks to live, she asked to interview him about his service in the Vietnam War. At first hesitant to share, Latham eventually consented to twenty-one interviews, sharing incredibly vivid, honest, and poignant memories about his time as a Green Beret. Latham died on the day their twenty-second interview was scheduled. Farell transcribed and edited the stories, leaving the voice, sequence, and content of the stories intact.

For over a thousand years, the Church was the sole interpreter of scripture. Members had to rely on priests, bishops and popes to tell them what the Bible contained. With the addition of new translations, and the Protestant Reformation, came the belief that the Church no longer needed to be the intermediary between God and humanity. Members of the church could interpret scripture on their own.
