I think you'll like West Virginia. It really is like stepping back in time, to a better time.
Those of us who grew up there tend to see it as something of a dead-end road because there aren't so many jobs, health care isn't very good (except in Morgantown), and the education opportunities are few (except in Morgantown). Also local governments can be very corrupt and incompetent. But the place has so many virtues most of us would go back in a minute if we could.

I'm married, a graduate of Covenant Theological Seminary, and an MA student at West Virginia University in the History Department where my focus is the relation of the Old Religious Right to the New Religious Right; Carl McIntire; and 1930s Christian Fundamentalism (they all tie together, I promise). I am a ministerial candidate/intern and youth minister in the PCA. One day, I hope to be a pastor and Church Historian. If I'm lucky, I'll never retire.
