With the passing of George H.W. Bush from this life,
we will have the opportunity to be stirred once again by tales from his
lengthy journey. We will hear of his early heroism at war. We will be
reminded of his storied political career. We will be touched anew by his
tender 73-year marriage. We will be told of his mistakes, and of
regrets of a kind familiar to us all.
Yet we will likely hear little about his religious faith, and this is unfortunate.
The truth is that his deep sense of God’s calling lay beneath all that
he was and all that he gave us. We should remind ourselves of this part
of him, both because it is an act of honor and because his brand of
faith offers a needed antidote to some of the toxins of our time.
