Dan Ledwith

After thirteen years as a pastor in New England, I am currently working as a retail tobacconist, manage the pipe and pipe tobacco section at New England's premiere cigar bar, Twins Smoke Shop, and host the "Not Just Blowing Smoke" podcast. In addition to that, I am working on a PhD in systematic and spiritual theology. I speak at local churches on a regular basis and have authored three books, all available on Amazon. Personally, I am learning to live for God through Christ in such a way that I am full of grace and truth (John 1:14). I am an easy going and fun loving guy who is totally in love with my wife Mandi and the proud father to my three girls.
