Spending his formative years in Ft. Wayne, IN, Jim followed the love of his life to southeast Iowa where they married and have spent the majority of their lives. Jim has pastored several churches throughout his life and has worked many years in local factories to help support his family. The father of two married adult children and one son still at home, Jim is a first-time author. C Through Marriage was my first venture into the writing world. It came out in 2009 and it now has been republished as, Before and After the Honeymoon. I have also published two devotional books from the Psalms, Psalm 119 and Psalms 103, 139 and 34, a study guide for Before and After the Honeymoon, and How to Make a Christian Marriage. I am currently working on other works that will soon be available. It is my goal to publish devotionals from every book of the Bible. I also may have more relational books published down the line. I am a firm believer in order to make sense out of life you have to use much common sense. We need to get back to the basics of what has worked for many, many generations. If is isn't broke, why try to fix it? I strive to return to the basics of what really works in all my writings.
