Different Seasons: twelve months of wisdom & inspiration

by Dale Turner

Former Seattle Times columnist Dale Turner shares some of his most enlightening and beloved articles in Different Seasons, the product of his 15 years as a journalist and more than 50 as a Congregational minister. From the start of every year, holidays and celebrations mark the passage of time. Dr. Turner writes lovingly about these and the times in between-the glory, grief, love, courage, compassion, and joy found in everyday living. These essays celebrate the search for meaning in life while concentrating on the struggles of real people. The good news is that life offers so much that is wonderful for those willing to look for it every day, week, and month of the year. Dr. Turner led a full and fascinating life, captured in this month-by-month journey through the year. His personal journey began with his youth in West Virginia and Ohio and his education at Yale Divinity School. Then serving as a pastor in Michigan, Kansas, and Washington and ministering to the sick in Japan and preaching in Great Britain. Different Seasons is a timeless legacy. Dale leaves us with inspiring stories and thought-provoking ideas and observations, which will be richly shared among friends and family for years to come.
