MY BOOK: SIMEON THE PROPHETIF YOU LIKE MAX LUCADO, GEORGE MACDONALD, C.S. LEWIS, THEN YOU WILL ENJOY THIS BOOK.Here is what readers have said about it.My book that I have written is very unique and very deep. If you are tired of reading books that are big on words but really say very little. You really need to buy my book then. In my book, SIMEON THE PROPHET, the words are poetic, prose with parables and proverbs. My writing style in this book was to put a mountain of meaning in few words.
It is set in a short story to give the book direction and focus and I know you will enjoy it. It is well worth buying one for yourself because afterward you will want to buy one for your friends.
It's part short story, part devotional, part poetry and part wisdom literature. The only book that is similar to it is "The Prophet" by Khalil Gibran.
But this book goes beyond Gibran's Prophet because this book brings you to the heart of God and challenges you to pursue His presence and His love with all your heart.I promise you, the TRUTH presented in this book, cuts through all the convoluted carnal reasonings and with blazing clarity declares Jesus as Lord, to be Loved and to be served with all our heart, soul and mind._______________________________________________________

A LITTLE BIT OF BACKGROUND ON ME AND THE BOOK.
I wrote most of the content of this book while I was in the Navy over in Viet Nam from 1969-1973. I was the only Christian on board that ship (USS Cacapon (AO-52))and I was going through some very rough persecution because when I first reported aboard the ship they wanted to take me to various brothels in "Sailor Town" and I refused to go. They insisted that if I was ever going to "fit in" on the ship, I had to go and not fitting in is something they did not tolerate. I refused to go and so I became the object of hatred and rage. I was persecuted, abused and beaten and in return I just kept being friendly to them, walking in forgiveness for them and trying my best to show the Love of Jesus. But the more I showed God's Love, the more angry they became and then their abuse lead to illegal imprisonments and weeks sentenced to hard labor. This went on for three years and the whole time I kept returning kindness for their hatred and I kept the Joy of the Lord in my heart. When I only had four months left in the Navy, some of the men on ship decided I had something real, that they wanted and I ended up leading 10% of the crew to the Lord in just 2 months time. The remaining 2 months I taught them fundamental truths from the Bible and how to take things to God in prayer. I am still in touch with a couple of those men who are still living for God and have raised families that are living for God. It was during these years that God showed me so many beautiful things as I spent hours and hours in prayer. I wrote these things down on scrap paper and when I got my first computer in 1994, I began collating all these paper scraps into a manuscript that in 2004 was published. The book is all about revelations and insight Father God gave me as I sought Him for wisdom to reveal Jesus to the lost men on the ship. It's a book I know you will enjoy. Please, the next time you purchase a Christian book to read, consider purchasing mine. I know you will be blessed by the surprising content.
