Dr. Maslin was born and raised on a small farm in the Appalachian area of Pennsylvania. He studied agriculture for four years in High School until his conversion to Christ and his call to preach. He then pursued studying for the ministry at the nearest Bible College. He followed this by earning a B.A. degree in Bible at Wheaton College; an M.A. degree in Religion at Baylor University; the M.Div. degree from Southern Baptist Theological Seminary; and finally, the Dr. of Ministry degree at New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary. He began publishing at the age of ninety.
His over forty years of pastoral ministry took him to Illinois, Kentucky, North Carolina and Florida, where he experienced a fruitful ministry at churches in Daytona Beach, Dunedin, and Sanford. He is the author of three books published by WestBow Press. He has also written three e-book collections of his biblical sermons. He is retired and lives with his wife and daughter in central Florida. He has continued writing on his website: http://www.drmaslinwrites.com/
