Thinking of you, Ruth, Brittany, and all the rest of the family during this time. Flok was one of those very special mentors who became a friend during my time at CBC. He taught with passion, but was very real and honest. He was someone who wrestled with doctrine, and his brilliant mind found its own path through it. I admired him deeply, and loved the streak of irreverence that was so refreshing. I talked him into coming to Lincoln, NE to do a teaching series at the church I served, and we spent some idyllic days scouring the thrift stores in Lincoln for rare book treasures. His vivid, rare colors are woven into the tapestry of my life, and I am grateful for that. Thhe world has lost a bit of sparkle now that he's moved on. Hugs all around.
