As a result of the events described in his Christian nonfiction book Visitation, Art Perkins identifies himself as fully Christian and fully committed to Biblical inerrancy and the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, as claimed by Paul in 2 Timothy 3:16 and 17, and by Peter in 2 Peter 1:20 and 21. Given his views on the nature of God, the author sees himself as partly Protestant, partly Catholic, and uniquely aligned with the primitive Church as it perceived God after having been indwelt by the Holy Spirit at the first Pentecost following Jesus’ resurrection. After completing his military service as a corporal (E-3) in the U.S. Marine Corps, Art studied engineering in college, receiving a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering from the University of California at Berkeley. He pursued an engineering career thereafter, with a brief interruption as a commercial pilot and flight instructor, which was terminated prematurely by a hearing loss. He then returned to his engineering career, in the course of which he received four patents in his chosen field of electronic design. After retirement, Art has traveled extensively with his wife Carolyn in and on a variety of vehicles on land, sea and air, continuing to this day with that joyful experience. Understanding the nature of God somewhat differently than that presented by contemporary Churches, Art undertook to write about that difference in terms of what Scripture itself presents. Art’s past writing works include two nonfiction Christian books, Family of God and Marching to a Worthy Drummer, and four Christian novels, Buddy, Cathy, Jacob and Home, Sweet Heaven.
