The relationship between God and man is the main topic of my writing. My goal in communicating this message is twofold:
To turn up a believer’s faith to be more white hot in Christ.
To rouse the tepid non-believer enough to say “yes” to Jesus before they die.
Why is that important?
The time is now. If not now, when?
Can you be so sure this day won’t be your end?
That’s why.
It took me until I was 63 years old. I had a dramatic encounter at that time with the presence of God. Shortly thereafter I said “yes” to Jesus. I don’t recommend waiting that long. I am incredibly grateful that I didn’t die before I was saved. Sadly, other people I knew weren’t so lucky. That was 2018.
I never had an interest in poetry or writing of any kind. To me that was dull and boring. I liked hands on artsy things. Within 6 months of being born again, the Holy Spirit infused me with the ability to write poetry. What? I was shocked.
After reading my daily Bible chapter I would get the urge to write poems about what I read, so I did. Then I began to wake up in the middle of the night with rhyming lines coming to me. I started to keep a stack of index cards and penlight next to my bed to capture them.
Recently, the Holy Spirit urged me to go through the piles of index cards and assemble a group for publishing. I Love You would be my answer is the title of my first book of rhyming poems. The book title comes from a line in one of the included poems. You can read the full Preface to the book on the Book page.
If you already own I Love You would be my answer, leaving a short five star review at Amazon would be awesome. You are so appreciated—thank you very much!
The Lord has also called me to write more in depth from inspirations from the Spirit and Bible study, especially from the letters of Paul to the seven churches and the Gospel of Luke. All Bible quotes are from the King James Version, unless otherwise noted. You will find my latest writings posted under Articles at the top of the homepage.
I hope you enjoy this site. It will be dynamic and changing. I will be posting new articles multiple times a month. New poems and testimonies will be shared as the Spirit moves me. An expanded About Me page will be forth coming that details my born again experience. Additional books are in the works. Feel free to share on social media.
I am compiling a group of powerful recommended videos from people who have enriched my walk in the Lord. This video list will be growing and evolving over time. Please take a look and watch. See Resources > Videos.
Sign up to be notified when new books become available. All profits are donated to organizations assisting persecuted Christians around the world. See Resources > Charities for list.
The Lord has called me to serve my fellow brothers and sisters in Christ by writing for the foreseeable future.
Yours in the Spirit of the Lord,
