Short version:
After being saved as a boy, I spent the better part of my teen years through 1997 trying to enjoy the things of this world. But the God of all Grace who saved me, finally sobered me, and then taught me that He had sanctified me as well for His service and glory.
While working at a seed company in McCordsville, IN in '96, the Lord introduced me to my wife, Helen and used her to lead me back to Himself. Helen lived in ATL and we stayed in touch after I left the company to manage a small trucking company and dispatch agency in Greenfield, IN.
The Lord provided a job at Southern States Feed Mill in Flowery Branch, GA in March '98 so that I could court Helen. We married in Aug. '99.
Doctors told us we had little to no chance of having children w/out fertilization treatments. As much as we desired a child, we felt before the Lord we needed to wait on Him. So we prayed and prayed and prayed some more. Then we miscarried. Then we cried - and prayed for 2 more years. Our son Nathanael (meaning: given of God) was born on Mother's Day '05 3 months premature. We thank the Lord he is a healthy 2 year old now.
Helen resigned as controller of a Swedish company to be a stay at home mom; although she still works as a part-time consultant for them.
I am office manager and warehouse/trucking supervisor for the feed mill. My greatest joy there was leading an employee who was dying of cancer to the Lord Jesus and seeing him saved. (I then watched him easily make the decision to forego treatments here so he could see his family in MX before entering into the presence of the Lord)
When not attending to family needs, my time is spent studying the Scriptures and preparing for the teaching/preaching ministry the Lord has given me at various churches in the state of GA mainly. I also have the privilege of residing on a board that oversees a ministry that conducts a monthly Bible Conference in Washington, GA, a bi-monthly teen conference and an annual intensive men's Bible study retreat. I also have the responsibility of moderating a monthly conversational Bible Reading. I thoroughly enjoy serving the Lord and His people.
Many of you perhaps are familiar with the most quoted Bible verse, John 3.16 - but if you are not a believer, you should consider verse 18 "... he that believes not is condemned already" and verse 36 "... he that believes not... the wrath of God abides on him." God has provided the only acceptable sacrifice for sin in His Son the Lord Jesus. He has provided the way of escape from His wrath, there is nothing you can do to earn salvation - simply believe what the Word of God says about Christ Jesus and about yourself.
My joy is in the Lord and my hope is in His return.
