B T Zwar had wanted to be a Lutheran pastor as a young man but as this would have meant studying in Europe he decided to become a doctor instead.
Later on, when he joined the armed fores in World War I, he was advised that he would not have any career future if he remained a member of the Lutheran Church. He joined the Presbyterian Church as a result of this advice, became an Elder and remained a faithful member for the rest of his life.
