God has been faithful to me all through my life, but there are two times
that stand out in my mind: when I came to know him as Savior and
when he planned circumstances so that my family and I would be in
exactly the right place at the right time for effective ministry.
I grew up in Easton, PA, and my mother took me to church from
the time I was a baby. As I got older I was known as a " church boy, "

Tuesday I decided to attend the class and from then on I just went a bit
late to rehearsal. I got away with it because I was a professional and
had the lead in the play.
After attending for a while, I began thinking one night about the
tremendous difference between the God I heard about at my church
and the God we heard about in class. I had always thought God was far
