Pastor Stephen Grant?

Stephen Grant is the pastor at St. Mary’s Lutheran Church on eastern Long Island. Grant is one of the more unique second-career clergy around, as he once worked for the CIA. Besides theology, his interests include archery, golf, writing, classic films, the beach, poker, baseball, and history. Grant also knows his wines, champagnes and brews. Oh yes, he generally dislikes politicians, and happens to be an expert marksman with a handgun and a rifle, while being pretty handy with a combat knife as well.

Character Quote of the Week from LIONHEARTS: A PASTOR STEPHEN GRANT NOVEL


An exchange between Mike Leonard and Stephen Grant – when both were Navy SEALs – as a helicopter flew them to their next mission...

      Leonard added, “So, my philosophy on life kind of comes down to seven points. Do you want to hear them?”
      “Sure.”
      “Shit happens. Have faith. Stay strong. Love and take care of your family. Pursue excellence. Help others. And enjoy the gifts.”
      “Not bad, Lieutenant. For now, I’ll take it.”
      About an hour later, the Seahawk touched down on the amphibious assault ship.
