In 1989, Kent Nerburn decided to take a job as a cab driver. “What I didn’t count on when I took the job was that it was also a ministry. Because I drove the night shift, my cab became a rolling confessional,” Nerburn, now an award-winning author from Minnesota, wrote in a story from his book “Make Me an Instrument of Your Peace.”
“I encountered people whose lives amazed me, ennobled me, made me laugh, and made me weep. And none of those lives touched me more than that of a woman I picked up late on a warm August night.”
