J.Z. Leister

Jacob Zachariah Leister (1979-present) was born in Wenatchee, Washington. He was trained as a Mechanical Engineer at Washington State University and currently works at Kodiak Aircraft Company in Sandpoint, Idaho as an Aerospace Design Engineer. The idea for his first book, "The Proselyte", was hatched while living and working in Wichita, Kansas during a time of prayer and meditation in Jesus Christ. Being a husband, a father of three, an elder in the Church, and working full-time didn't leave much time to write and so most of "The Proselyte" was written on his iPhone any time he had an extra moment. He looks forward to sharing his faith in Jesus Christ and challenging your thoughts about life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness through his writings.

Jacob's writings also help support his parents and brother's family living in Eldoret, Kenya as they build, teach, adopt, and grow at Tumaini Children's Home. You can directly support this work through their 501c3, Family Keys International. Go to www.familykeysint.com, and click "Donate".
