OVERVIEW:

About 25 years ago, I made a conscious decision to live with an eternal purpose. That purpose would be sharing the Gospel and I would begin doing it through writing. Back in January 2011, I published my first book with the help of my investment partner, Curtis Neil. Since then, by the grace of God, I have completed four more books, I have a total of three Christian inspirational book series started, my work has been featured in various other books by other authors, and I met and fell in love with another Christian inspirational author. The journey is far from over, but I know that it is one that I must take for the sake of the Gospel. This is my purpose and personal ministry in Christ, and I desire to help others discover their purpose and personal ministry through my newest book, The Christ Network.

THE CHRIST NETWORK:

God's Spirit has been speaking to me for years about how Christian networking is the future of the church. Over those years, I have not found a single book on the topic of Christian networking. So I decided to write one, and not one only but an entire series starting with my newly published book, The Christ Network: Book 1 in the Way of Wisdom Series. I made it extremely affordable because this book is my ministry. It has 136 pages and is laid out like a 2-week devotional. Not only does this book reveal 12 biblical steps for achieving true success in and through the Body of Christ, but it also helps reveal who a person is in Christ and what their ultimate purpose is in all of this. I am excited about bringing this work to my readers in such an affordable means. This book beyond all others I have written is truly my ministry and passion. The reason for this is because it is not about what I can do or how talented I am with what God has given me, but rather about what I can help my readers accomplish in their personal ministry for Christ. #purpose #life #faith #devotion #biblestudy #journaling #happy #love #hope #inspiration

FULL BIO:

I consider writing my spiritual gift, not a natural one by any means. This spiritual gift was given to me in my teenage years, immediately after making the commitment to live my life for God the Father and Jesus Christ, His only begotten Son. I first received the desire to inspire others and live with an eternal purpose, and it soon became apparent that I would do so through writing, which previously I struggled greatly with. The inspiration thereafter would come at certain times and the words would flow and come together. I have believed in God, and had sought God since I came to faith as a child; but it was the decision to surrender to God completely, repenting of my sin, and choosing to live my life for Him that changed me forever. It is by the cross of Christ that the world is crucified to me, and I, to the world. I pray that you will come to the cross, and receive all the Lord has desired for your life and your legacy. It is only through Christ and His cross, that I live out this legacy as a witness of all that the Father has given to us through His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

I have since been blessed with authoring a three book series of 101 treasurable poems; the poetry devotional Sea of Serenity; and my newest devotional workbook and Bible study, The Christ Network, which helps others understand their calling, purpose, ministry, and legacy in and through the Body of Christ. The Lord has already used my writing to impact lives from across America to the Sudan in Africa to places in Australia. I had one of my poems published in a book entitled Visions of Hope written by an Australian author, about a refugee who used my poetry in his testimony as he traveled around Australia. I would have never known about this, had the author not of sought me out and asked me for permission to use my work. God works in amazing ways and He used my work internationally before I ever had a book published. We never know what God is doing with what we give on His behalf. My work has also been featured in other books by other authors. The Lord has no doubt blessed me and I will no doubt continue to give praise to Him. May the peace of Christ dwell in your hearts, and may you live out all that the Lord has called you to live out. May you understand repentance of sin, the healing power of the cross of Christ, and the authority that the Lord gives to His chosen ones in the faith.

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT:

I recently got engaged to a wonderful woman in my life, who is also a Christian, inspirational author. Tina Bryant is the author of A Quest for Jesus - A devotional for singles. She has a passion for those who are waiting for God's best. Working together we also wrote the beautiful and God inspired devotional Sea of Serenity, which is filled with coastal poetry, devotions, and journaling pages. If you love the Lord and everything to do with the coast, I believe you will cherish this treasury of coastal poetry and devotions from the Seasons of Poetry Series. Topics range from lighthouses, sunsets, and sandcastles, to seashells, sailboats, and dolphins.
