For a decade or more I have experienced a deep, inner impression to write a book. My greatest love in life, of course, is God and His perfect Divine design for all of mankind. Having experienced salvation at an early age, I, and the world around me, was spared the despair and difficulties that sin would have caused. My passion is that this writing will touch countless souls. We are living in a world that is suffering untold misery because mankind, Gods creation, the only part of creation with a soul, has turned its attention away from a Holy, Sovereign Creator, and is running out of control into eternity hopelessly lost. Parts of this book are biographies of very special people in my life. Relationships in our earthly lives can make or break us. I have had, and presently have, priceless relationships that have helped form and transform me for God and His cause. All glory, though, belongs to Jesus Christ and His perfect love for all. We live in a world that is afraid of God, and afraid that we will over- spiritualize everything. The spiritual aspect of life is Real Life! I hope and pray Spiritually Speaking will touch your heart and soul.
