Über den Autor


David Livingston Edwards died of cancer in 2019, but his loving spirit continues to circle the world as his songwriting and teaching about peace and justice continue to be shared by men and women every day. David inherited his love of music from his parents, who hailed from Appalachian Southwest Virginia, where music flows throughout worship, fun and all of life. Though this book is only his second published work, he was a prolific writer of sermons, essays, poetry and music. David attended Lynchburg College (now the University of Lynchburg) in Lynchburg, Virginia, and Lexington Theological Seminary in Lexington, Kentucky. His alternative service as a conscientious objector to the draft was performed as an orderly on the cardiac ward of Boston Children's Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts. During his career as a minister, he served congregations in Kentucky, Indiana and Virginia. He is survived by his wife, the educator Kaye Edwards, who contributed to David's book and maintains the websites that share many of his community resources, including his original music, with the world.
