A preacher by calling, a volunteer coach by passion and a humorist by nature, Tony Thomas takes a whimsical look at life in A Smidgeon of Religion. For the past two years, The Paper of Montgomery County has turned their editorial space over to an unorthodox pastor every Friday. A wordsmith and storyteller at heart, Thomas relays a modern parable to his readers, weaving in a heavenly meaning in a non-threatening way.
