Honoring God, hard work, and respect for people were important concepts learned at an early age. His first two great loves were reading books, especially the Bible, and roaming the outdoors. At the age of eleven, financial pressures eased modestly when the family left the farm and moved to town for a better-paying job. Through work, loans, scholarships, and an encouraging family, Fred earned a master’s degree in chemistry in 1967 and accepted a job as a research chemist for The Dow Chemical Company on the Gulf Coast. Life became more complicated for his wife, Verna, a career schoolteacher, and their two small girls in 1975 when he suddenly became a Baptist pastor while continuing his job in industry. With no prior training or preparation for this new responsibility, his most valuable ministerial asset was a beautiful, supportive wife with the ability to sing and play the piano.
During his thirty-three years of scientific research, Fred was the author of thirty-eight technical papers and was granted ten U. S. Patents. After raising their two girls, who also became schoolteachers, Fred and Verna retired to live in the historic Big Thicket of Texas in 2000, where he is currently the pastor of First Shiloh, a small country church in Woodville, Texas. His spare time is spent fishing, playing golf, and enjoying the woods.
Fred’s diverse background enriches the broad spectrum of spiritual truths presented in his book. His inherent analytical personality, magnified by endless hours of detailed work in the laboratory, is evident in these biblical studies. This technical perspective is softened with numerous heart-warming stories from his past experiences, interesting illustrations of historical figures, and inspirational poetry.показать меньше
