Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I live in Kentucky and am a father of two and married for 25 years. I am a graduate of the University of Kentucky with a major in Political Science and minor in History. I began teaching youth over 14 years ago and currently attend and teach at Southside Baptist Church in Princeton, KY as the interim youth minister.
I worked for Progressive Insurance for 14 years and I am serving my second term as Lyon County Judge Executive which is an elected county position.
This is my first book. I have wanted to write and publish this for a long time and finally learned how to self publish.
In conjunction with this book I created a webpage that allows readers of this book to tell their own witnessing stories. We can learn from each other’s experiences, fears, failures, successes and witnessing techniques. Feel free to contribute to the website so others can learn from your story of witnessing at www.iwillwitness.com.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
I Will Witness.
For years I have taught students who feared to witness go out and witness. So I believe I had some insight to help others learn.
This book is written for the Christian struggling to witness – no matter the age. Teenagers will relate to the stories of my youth group and how they overcame their fears! If we profess to know Jesus as our Savior then we are also called to tell others the good news of His Saving Grace. We can’t leave it to our pastor or youth minister to tell the Story of Jesus alone. Sometimes when your friend needs Jesus you may be the only one standing there – be ready! If you are looking for a book that speaks to average Christians while inspiring you with real life stories, this is it!
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
Do most of it late at night while listening to KLOVE radio.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Max Lucado, 3:16 was the book title
What are you working on now?
I am working on a workbook to go along with I Will Witness and a book called School Prayer Walk. In 2006, my youth group and I began a movement called Revive Prayer Walk. Its spread across Kentucky and into over 20 states in 3 countries. Its prayer walking at a local school. We helped other people set these up so many from the community could show up and prayer walk their school inside and out on a Sunday once a month. I plan to write about it and how to set one up and hopefully see a renewed interest in prayer walking our schools.
