This relationship started when I was eight years old. My relationship has become more personal and more real each year. I have read the Bible through 25 times in the last 19 years.
In addition to personal study and Bible reading, I have memorized the Word and continue to memorize the Word because the Word is life to me. I have attended Wheaton College and Moody Bible Institute where I studied the Bible. I have taught adult Sunday School for more than five years and led weekly men’s Bible studies for more than 20 years. I have done lay preaching for many years.
My Bible tells me I am a friend of God. As a friend of God I have been led to write the devotions that are shared in this book to share with other friends of God and any other person that might desire to have a more personal relationship with our Heavenly Father. What qualifies me more than anything else is that I believe I have been called of God to write this book.
I honorably served in the US army. With the help of the GI Bill I was able to go to school. I received a bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering. I worked for 30 years for Weyerhaeuser Company and was promoted to Director of the Wood Products Maintenance in that company. I am now retired from Weyerhaeuser. I am happy and blessed to be married to my wife Susan for 56+ years. We have three married sons and nine grandchildren. I have traveled nearly around the world.
We currently live on a small five-acre farm bordering the state of Washington’s Lake Terrell Wildlife Refuge. I grow Christmas trees, garden, grow flowers and feed a lot of birds. I love to fish and to share the Word of God.vizualizați mai puține
