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.

A Cool and Appreciated Take on the Pastor Stephen Grant Thrillers and Mysteries

“My daughter Mary Moerbe has compiled a list of contemporary Lutheran novelists, many of whom are working in the formula genres and are self-publishing, but some of those are well-done and fun to read (such as Ray Keating's Pastor Stephen Grant series, about a James-Bond type CIA agent who becomes a Lutheran pastor, but still sometimes has to revert to his former life. Talk about being between two kingdoms!).”  
– Gene Edward Veith, a Patheos.com columnist, retired literature professor, Provost Emeritus at Patrick Henry College, director of the Cranach Institute at Concordia Theological Seminary, and his latest book is Post-Christian: A Guide to Contemporary Thought and Culture
