James A. Harnish

I retired after 42 years of pastoral ministry in the Florida Conference of the United Methodist Church. Martha and I are enjoying our 51th year of marriage at home in Longwood, Florida. I keep engaged by writing for the United Methodist Publishing House (http://www.abingdonpress.com/james_a_harnish) and Upper Room Books (https://upperroombooks.com/author/james-a-harnish/). I also serve as a facilitator for the Institute of Preaching and a member of the Board of Visitors at Duke Divinity School. We have two fantastic daughters. Carrie Lynn is married to Andy. They live in Orlando with our grandchildren Julia, Alex and Luke. Deborah Jeanne is married to Dan. They live in Charleston, South Carolina, with our two granddaughters, Mattie, and Molly.
