A lifetime’s worth of inspirational sermons, and the man who wrote and delivered them, 79-year-old Presbyterian minister Frederick Buechner, were honored at a special ceremony last month at the Washington National Cathedral (Episcopal). The author of 30 books was the star of the April 5 event. “‘Tell the truth,’ he would say to us budding preachers. ‘Tell the truth of our lives as candidly and overtly as we can,’” said Samuel T. Lloyd III, dean of the cathedral.
