Jim Rentz and his wife were great - I visited them a lot when I was stationed in Opa Locka.
I use to go to a small Assemblies of God church in Hialeah, FL with the nicest pastor you could ever know. There are people I know and who I am close to who are famous, and there are people who simply stoke my interest. Either way, as a subject, fame is fascinating.
I like to read especially about people who make a difference in the world, some for good and some for bad.
