About me

I was born and raised in Northern (Superior) Wisconsin about 80 miles from the Canadian border; and, yes it gets very cold there! At the young age of 32 I began to feel called into ministry. One night at a church dinner, my wife Judy and I sat at a table next to our district superintendent. In the course of our conversation, he said that he had a small church that needed someone to supply the pulpit until he could appoint a new pastor. My pastor suggested that maybe I could do that. I agreed, and two Sundays later, my wife and I drove to that small rural church. Little did we know that I would fill the pulpit in that church for thirteen years!

I have now been in the ministry for 35 years after also serving churches in Virginia and Maryland. I am currently retired...well, sort of. In my retirement, I am now serving as part-time Pastor of First Evangelical Covenant Church in Superior Wi. I began writing books about seven years ago, and still enjoy speaking and teaching when I can. My wife Judy passed away in 2021and I have since remarried to My wife Crystal.

I have a deep desire to help people grow in their faith and knowledge of God’s Word. My books are what I call a “Quest for Discipleship”. As I said, I am a published author and I have nineteen books which include my latest called "Tell Me, Show Me, Fill Me, Change Me"; "In It For Life"; “By His Hand”; “Show and Tell”; “The Promised Gift”; “Jars of Clay”; “The Kingdom of God”; “From the Pastor’s Desk”; “More From the Pastor’s Desk”; "T.E.A.M."; "Let Earth Receive Her King"; "Therefore" "Principles from Proverbs"; "God's Top ten"; "Prayer Changes Things", "5 R's of Revelation" and two "Renewed Faith" 90 day devotionals all by Life Ministries Publishing.

Daily book quote;
Make the time to get to know God on a daily basis. Read the Bible - Get a version you can really understand. (There are no anointed versions.)  Pray—just talk to God--Tell God how you feel. Ask God to let his will be done in your life. Ask God to meet your needs. Ask Him to forgive your sin. Ask Him to help you fight temptation. Tell him when your angry, tell him when you are happy, tell him when you are disappointed or you don’t understand. You can’t tell God anything He doesn’t already know! He just wants to spend time with you. Put a better relationship with God at the top of your priority list.

    I have given you this definition of an intentional life:  “An intentional life is one with purpose that is followed by a steady disciplined determination until the desired results are realized.”  Make that the definition of your relationship with God. Pursue his purposes with a bold and steady determination until you become exactly what he wants you to become. Remember that it’s a process; it’s a marathon, not a sprint. It will not happen overnight.
