In 1977, when I was 10 years old, my parents took my siblings and me to an old-fashioned barn meeting to watch the 1972 End Times classic, "A Thief in the Night". The movie made quite an impression on me, and on the ride home that night I got a very strong--life-altering, in fact--impression that I would one day teach and write on the topic of the Last Days. I spent the next 22 years preparing to write; I began writing in 1999; and I finally published Part 1 of my book series on New Year's Eve 2014. Part 2 and Part 3 are written and will be published soon.

Part 2 of my book series, "These Final Days". I'm also working to produce my second DVD set, a sort of documentary about my two weeks (in May 2014) in Israel and the Palestinian Territories, where I conducted boots-on-the-ground research for my book series and teaching.

Write. Study, research, think, ponder, dream. And write.

Being able to share all this stuff that's been brewing inside of me for many years with others. For me, there aren't many other things in life that are more fulfilling--a few things, but not many.

I'm not even sure what writer's block is. Writing takes effort. Sometimes I don't feel like writing, but my book series isn't going to write itself. So, I make myself sit down at the laptop, and I go to work. True, sometimes this results in substandard work that has to be redone. But that's all part of getting better! :)
