"Impossible Journey is reminiscent of The Time Machine by H. G. Wells with a unique twist."-- Tami Brady (Goodreads)
Future scientists plan to time-travel to Eden to prevent the fall and thus put an end to all evil and disease in the world. But they can only travel 200 years, more or less, at a time
.
Having gained the needed financial support from the wealthy financier, Mark Lewis, the scientists manage to build the first time machine in which three of them take off on their imposing mission.
They visit the following different historical time periods:
Each of these historical time periods points in some way to the true answer they are seeking. But they ignore the obvious and go on blindly with their mission.
At one point, they are pulled forward unexpectedly to their future where robots serve and are forced to fight in a senseless war. Will they escape? And will they ever come to learn the true answer to the problem of sin and evil in the world?

Interested in writing and drama since High School, he graduated from a Christian high school, where he participated in several plays and got A's in English Grammar, and wrote write several short stories, poems, and articles, usually incorporating my faith into his writings. While attending St. Petersburg Jr. College, in St. Petersburg, FL, he won second prize in a writing contest with a Biblical short story, called "Beggarman-Thief," which now forms part of his Biblical fiction novel.

He went on to Biblical School of Theology (now Biblical Seminary) in Hatfield, Pennsylvania and graduating in 1974 with an M.Div. Ordained in November of 1974, he served in different areas of Ministry, one of which was a foreign student ministry, which is also where he started writing his first two novels, and also where he met his dear wife, Berenice from Venezuela.

Upon returning to the US, he also completed the Biblical fiction novel, Of Such Is The Kingdom. Also shortly after returning to the US, he began publishing his self-help ezine, "Inspirational Success Tips," his articles from which now form my self-help book Principles of the Kingdom. Then in 2012, he had the opportunity to preach a Christmas sermon in his church, which resulted in his writing The Christmas Victory, A Gem of A Sermon, All Wrapped Up In A Historical Novel. In 2020 his Biblical novel, Of Such Is The Kingdom, won an award from Reader's Favorite International Book Awards.
