Little Minister Influences Big Land, Big Men, Big Challenges!, April 28, 2006
This review is from: Sky Pilot (Paperback)
From 1900 Alberta/Northwest Territory Rocky Mountain foothills comes this story of the taming of the last of the wild west. A young minister comes among the secretive closed-off society of lumberjacks, ranchers and cowpokes who view encroaching civilization with a proud cynicism. Initially stuck with the derisive appellation of "The Sky Pilot" - his influence nevertheless brings God, goodness, and personal decisions to be viewed as serious opportunities to develop character in keeping with the rugged grandeur of their surroundings. The colorful local zanies are astounded at his non-religious manner and how accepting he is of what they thought he would be against and how challenging he is in several unexpected ways. Several characters are carefully developed; much humor - a moving story.
