THE SHEEP SHED

Life on the farm as a son of an extremely legalistic preacher presented a challenge for a young boy whose main goal was to keep from spending an eternity in hell. The relationship he had with his angry father was one of crime and punishment, and that's how he believed God operated as well. As one of five adventure-seeking country preacher's sons who feared nothing, their antics reveal the trials and triumphs of a lifelong search for truth. The seemingly never-ending task of dismantling the sheep shed parallels the author's struggles with finding truth in organized religion.
