I came to know Jesus November 19, 1969 in a little chapel in Southern Ca. I was a typical Southern Ca. kid trying to live out a Hippie existence and be true to my idealistic ideas of Love one another while the U.S. was at war overseas and had its own culture war going on at home. I was searching for something real, true and peaceful. I found it in the person of Jesus like many others in my generation and the Newspapers called it the Jesus Movement. My life with Jesus and the church had many ups and down, victories and defeats. After many years of feeling defeated I began to get up early and spend quiet, prayerful time listening for His voice. Jesus is faithful, He has been there each morning and Manna From My Journey came out of those mornings with the Lover of My Soul. I pastored a small church in Huntington Beach Ca. for many years and worked with the Orange County Rescue Mission as a counselor, pastor and director of a Discipleship Ranch in Warner Springs Ca. After raising all our children I presently live with my wife Leslie in Anza Ca. Leslie is the gift the Lord sent to show me what a life spent in His presence looks like. We are enjoying life, our children and grandchildren and serving as Assistant Pastor at Calvary Chapel High Country.
