A fictional sermon-draft notebook found near Monongahela, Pennsylvania, follows a Methodist pastor from 1974 to 2016 as steel-town sermons are changed by layoffs, funerals, pantry lines, and the limits of certainty.

A black composition book, its cover faded to brownish red, surfaced in a box marked church books at an estate-sale cleanout near Monongahela, Pennsylvania. The spine is wrapped in black electrical tape. A coffee ring sits on the front. Inside, in blue ballpoint, someone wrote: T. Weller, sermons, 1974.

The notebook follows a fictional Methodist pastor from 1974 to 2016. Across five entries, his draft sermons meet a laid-off mill worker, a grieving mother, a church pantry, and a hospital room. The lines he crosses out are often the lines that would have made someone else's pain sound finished.

Note: the notebook and all persons described are fictional, created in the tradition of found-object storytelling.
