    Pastor Kelly is an inspiration to many. A few gems from his conversation: "...it's not the church's job to sleepwalk with the culture"; "the church should inform society"; and my favorite, "the church, if it can't speak to the issues of society, is more than a waste of space; they are irrelevant and actually affirming the self-destruction of society" May the Lord continue to bless and guide him

    Most pilots that I ever knew decided they wanted to be a pilot when they were very young and the only thing that would change their mind would be poor either health or lack of money. And that only kept them from becoming a pilot. I’ve met many people who told me they still wanted to be a pilot that never could achieve their goal because one of those was lacking. Such an inspiring story
