If I write a book or books then my friends, family and strangers that i corner in the subway won't have to listen to my blah blahs. I'm in India now and will be in London for five days visiting with Stephanie there. Then off to the Doulos, one of our ministry ships. my new web addy is www.nathanbsmith.com although my blogspot addy still sends you there.
