50 More Stories and Songs is a continuation of Rev. James D. Wood’s delightful memoir, This Is My Story, This Is My Song. Remembering other “forgotten events” in his life, Reverend Wood writes about them and concludes each story with resonating words from a hymn. Readers will find these additional stories to be charming and engaging.
Reverend Wood has served nine congregations during his fifty years with the United Methodist Church. Previously, he served in the US Navy and with the Port District of San Diego as a civil engineering draftsman. In ministry though, Reverend Wood discovered life to be even more meaningful and adventurous than he ever imagined.
He is married to Martha, herself the author of Out of My Mind, has three children, seven grandchildren, and three great-granddaughters. They have lived in Arizona for the past forty-four years and currently reside in Sun Lakes, Arizona.

Rev. James D. Wood has served as a minister in The United Methodist Church for more than fifty years. He has previously published one other book, “This Is My Story, This Is My Song: A Minister’s Memoir.” It was in the mid-1960s and Wood was married and raising two children when he experienced the call to ministry that turned his life upside down. After accepting what he regarded as a challenge from God, Wood quit his job with the Port District of San Diego and went back to college and then seminary.
