Restored hope

Restored hope

A tip of my hat to Grace Thornton for her thoughtful article on Ben Moseley — “On that road to redemption” — in the Aug. 17 issue.

I recall the events related to the church burnings from 11 years ago and wondered what kind of heartless creatures could do such a thing.

Grace helped to restore some of my perspective with the way she told the story of the “new” Ben Moseley. Thank you, Grace.

Here is hoping and praying Ben will continue on his new path and reach out to the younger generation who may be led astray as he was years ago.
