The Wealth of the Nations

Book Cover & Preview Text
About ninety miles Joseph and Mary had to travel.
Over roads made of dirt and of gravel.
It was a long, difficult and hazardous trek.
It could have made Mary a nervous wreck.
There were few places to stay along the way.
Highwaymen were a threat every day.
Walking or riding on an ass.
They weren't exactly traveling what you would call first class.

About the Book
The four Gospels are arranged in topical format, paraphrased, and put in poetic form with helpful comments to assist the reader in understanding the events and circumstances surrounding Christ at that time.
A second, shorter section in verse form gives the author’s insight into various situations where the life of Christ is meaningful.
About the Author
An ordained Southern Baptist Minister who has spent his adult life serving churches and spreading the Gospel. I have always been active in studying and researching Bible history and interpretation. Have also published a thirty day devotional titled, A Gardner Weeds God’s Creation which has been well received.
I have served churches in the Northeast and Florida over the last thirty years. In more recent years I have been active in inter-denominational service, ministering and teaching on cruise ships in all parts of the globe. The cruise ship ministry has been especially rewarding and my wife and I have people around the world that contact us with special prayer requests.
Loretta, my wife of fifty-seven years, and I have resided in central Florida for the last twenty-two years. We work as a team in ministering to those the Lord puts in our path. During a large portion of my ministry, I served small churches in a bi-vocational capacity. My secular career was spent in banking with a majority of those years managing data processing departments as an officer of the bank. We have two living children and four grandchildren. We lost our oldest child in a car accident.
