In the heart of Holmes County, Ohio, where rolling fields stretch beneath the watchful sky, my life has been shaped by the hand of divine grace. I am a husband, a father of four beautiful children, three daughters and a son, but above all, I am a servant of Christ. My journey has been one of transformation, a pilgrimage from the relentless pursuit of worldly success to the discovery of a truth far greater than anything I had ever imagined. For years, I was a workaholic, pouring my energy into business, striving for achievement, and measuring success by the standards of this world. God, in His mercy, opened my eyes to something far beyond profit and labor. He revealed to me that life's true purpose is not found in what we build with our hands, but in the love and salvation offered through Jesus Christ. This awakening changed everything.
It is out of this revelation that this book was born. My deepest desire is to share what I have learned, to offer a beacon of hope for those caught in the same relentless cycle I once was. My prayer is that, as you turn these pages, you will be inspired to fix your eyes not on the fleeting pursuits of this world, but on the eternal work of Christ, who died and rose again for us all. This is the first of four books, each written with an unshakable passion to spread the good news of Jesus. Though my roots are Amish, my message reaches beyond any one denomination, because in Christ, there are no divisions, only souls in need of His redeeming love. It is my mission to see these words of hope translated into over fifty languages, to break down barriers of culture and language, and to proclaim the universal truth of salvation to all who will listen.
Jesus Himself commanded us in Mark 16:15: "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature." That is the heart of this book, a call to faith, a call to transformation, and most importantly, a call to Christ. So, I invite you to join me. Let us walk this journey together, seeking not the riches of this world, but the boundless love of our Savior. May this book not only inspire but awaken in you a desire to live for the glory of Jesus, for He alone is our true reward.
Nestled in the heart of Holmes County, Ohio is an author whose life has been profoundly shaped by God's grace. Blessed with a loving wife and four wonderful children, three daughters and a son, his journey has been one of transformation, healing, and revelation. Once consumed by the relentless pursuit of success, he devoted himself entirely to business, believing that achievement and hard work defined a fulfilling life. Amidst that grind, God opened his eyes to a far greater truth: life's purpose is not found in what we accumulate, but in the love and salvation offered through Jesus Christ. This realization changed everything. Now, his passion burns not for worldly gain, but for spreading the message of redemption, grace, and the boundless mercy of Christ.
