J. Vance Eastridge

From 1955 to 1994, Rev. Eastridge served as senior pastor of over a dozen churches throughout Tennessee, Georgia and Virginia in the Holston Conference of the United Methodist Church. Upon retirement, Rev. Eastridge found a new ministry as a writer and teacher of the Virgil Anderson Sunday school class at Munsey Memorial United Methodist Church in Johnson City, Tennessee. His books include a memoir, I Don't Know Who You Are...But I'm Glad You Came, a brief history of Methodism A Man Named Wesley Passed This Way, and a collection of essays, meditations, poems and photographs Just Sitting Here... Thinking, for which this podcast is named.
