My father-in-law planted this miniature rose bush more than sixteen years ago. Just three days before the first of November, this magnificent rose waited for me… to appreciate and to remember. I am grateful.

The Conversational Bible The New Testament in Story

My new book, “The Conversational Bible: The New Testament in Story Form” is now available in hardcover.

Here’s a synopsis:

What is more important for a young Christian than to be deeply and intimately familiar with the life of Christ? The Conversational Bible: The New Testament in Story Form walks through the events, teachings, and miracles of the New Testament, as well as the growth of the early church and the work of the apostles. Scripture is explained in an approachable, conversational style in order to appeal to new believers of all ages. Few things are more important in a Christian’s walk than the diligent reading of God’s Word, and The Conversational Bible encourages that practice while also expanding upon the teachings of Scripture, making it the perfect companion for the follower of Christ. The Conversational Bible, an update of History of the New Testament in Words of One Syllable, published in 1888, also contains many of the engravings found in the original.

Do You Plant Seeds?

March 12, 2016

“If You Don’t Know Where You’re Going, You’ll Probably End Up Somewhere Else” is an interesting book to read. I had purchased the paperback book for $1 at a check cashing store. A friend told me about a stack of used books for sale there; the books were almost hidden in a flat display case. Always on the hunt for a bargain book, I rarely pass up an opportunity to browse through more or less forgotten treasures.
