Tell us a little about yourself. I am just a church going Christian that enjoys sharing God's love with the world. My book is designed for any Christian or person wanting to learn about Christianity. It is not intended for any specific religion but rather to help an individual establish a great foundation for their own relationship with God.
What was your motivation behind this project? I often found myself reciting prayers, just words without thinking about the fact that I was actually having a conversation with God. I was determined that I should try to learn more about the prayer so I could have more meaning to the words I was saying. Then I thought perhaps I am not the only one that finds that reciting words can also leave one feeling empty after "praying". Therefore, I wanted to share this with the world so an individual can work on establishing their relationship with God and also have a more purposeful life on this earth.
What do you hope folks will gain from this project? I hope that through this book people can have a more meaningful relationship with God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit. In addition, when they write their thoughts and words in the book they can leave a legacy to their children that may make an eternal difference as they also may grow to have a deeper relationship with God.
How were you personally impacted by working on this project? I believe my relationship with God has become stronger. Even though I am less than perfect, I am reminded that I am forgiven and I have a God who loves me enough that He gave me His only begotten son to save my life. Each time I read the book it has a different meaning.
Who are your influences, sources of inspiration or favorite authors / artists? Tony Dungy , The Uncommon Man
Mark Batterson, Circle Prayer
These books have shaped and molded me and inspired me to write my book.
Anything else you'd like readers / listeners to know: In these days of uncertainty, it is important to find Christ. I hope this book will help people to find Christ not only for eternal life, but for a happier more blessed life here on this earth.
