Jerald R. Borgie
For over twenty years, thousands of children (and adults, too) were inspired by the Bible-based stories known as 'Chapel Chats' that were shared by Pastor Jerald Borgie and his koala puppet, Jeremiah. Sixty-six of these 'chats' along with fifteen illustrated graphics, drawn by artist, Brooke Plowman, are included in the book.'Pastor Borgie has a reputation for drawing you into his stories, and his anecdotes are famously popular with both young and old. For many decades, he has invited children to have a seat before him, then his twinkling eyes would take over and a bond was formed. I’m pleased he’s taken this opportunity to share his favorites with a wider audience.'Richard A. Swenson, MD, author of MarginJerald Borgie was ordained a pastor in the Lutheran church forty-eight years ago and has served congregations in Cleveland, Ohio; Compton, California; and San Diego, California. He and his wife, Marcia, have been married for forty-five years, have two married sons, and five grandchildren. 3
