Sam, or “Big Sam” as he was often called due to his impressive height, was a dynamic preacher and gifted pastor whose ministry in Arizona and California churches nurtured and transformed generations of people. He believed that preaching was the expression of personality in relation to religious themes and he was master of the craft. That same combination of proclamation and personality is abundantly evident in the pages of Beauty in the Ordinary.
Sam intuitively grasped the ambiguity of religion, which helped him communicate with its cultured despisers. He was able to convey the benefits of religion without artificially or falsely idealizing it. He stood for tolerance and inclusiveness and against bigotry and fanaticism. And he changed the lives of countless people through his pastoral work and powerful preaching.
