Ryan, I look forward to a little dialogue. I am busy these days and am grateful for email notifications as we get with Goodreads. I will look into getting your book.

My newest book, Jots and Tittles is near publication. A comment from the back cover tells you what it is about:
The purpose behind this writing is to share some tidbits of truth that delve more deeply into the message of Scripture through the grammar, through the original languages in which it was written. And this is done for three reason: First, in the sincere hope it will encourage a deeper love and interest in the reader for the emphatic, clear and simple message of the Bible as God's message.

Secondly, by so doing, to encourage the reader to embrace all Christians regardless of their doctrinal lean because all Christians have this same message in common. Everyone who claims Christianity as their faith should by the very profundity of its central truth sense themselves always the student of that message. It is hoped the reader will gain insight into divine things here that he or she never read before. The hope is for insight that alerts them to their need to learn and that will therein encourage fellowship and understanding across denominational boundaries. Reading this work, then, will hopefully underscore in one's understanding the total futility of arguing with other believers over God's Word.

Lastly, and this was almost an afterthought, it is hoped that herein is found key grammatical support for the premise that the Bible IS the inspired Word of God. And it is the fondest hope that we become more and more aware of God's heart between the lines as we read Scripture. See the thread of grace running through it. See the plan of God as it unfolds. See the revelation of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, from Genesis to Revelation as it progressively becomes clearer. It is in the grammar!
