Whether I am politically a radical left-wing progressive, a centrist, a radical right-winger, or anything in between, what I really want and what my political philosophy is trying to achieve is a good government that will provide the best for me and the society to which I belong.

My story in brief…

Christ first came into my life at the age of 5 during a series of evangelistic meetings in our tiny country Quaker church house in Gate, Oklahoma. Since then it has been a process of “Stumbling forward by grace, through faith in Christ.” I experienced a significant personal revival at the age of 19 and have been much in love with the Lord ever since…five decades-plus.

My passion is to enjoy the Lord by encouraging others to make progress in their lives…living life successfully. I do that primarily through my disciple-making efforts and through my writing.

I spent about 20 years in public ministry and at the age of 40 decided that I had allowed my passion for ministry to impede my prior duty to my family, so I stepped aside. I found a new career as a financial advisor from which I am now retired.

Now I am able to enjoy my family and pursue ministry opportunities as the Lord opens them to me. I now serve as an Elder with Convergence Church-OKC.
