"The Miracle of the Wine is a volume of my spiritual poetry between Passion Week 2002 to Christmas 2005. The title commemorates the first miracle of Jesus where he turned water to wine in a wedding reception. So, he turned something that's common, ubiquitous, and transparent to something that's extraordinary, colorful and wanted. I think that I'm in the same process." Sincerely, James James Shin, who has cerebral palsy, grew up in Ohio. He received his BS in Business at Long Beach State seven years after he graduated from high school. While he was pursuing his MBA at CSULB, Lord Jesus spoke to him through his mother to go to church or to be in a church-like group. So he began the search. The search ended when Rev. James Kang came into the dorms. He said that Jesus was the way, and that Rev. Kang was in a part of the para-church group called Navigators. He told James that Billy Graham started this group. After a month, he gave his heart to Jesus. After he graduated with MBA three years later, James pursued a job through the Department of Rehabilitation. It took him eight years and another four years of ordeal to have 'a job'. While these processes were going on, James wrote the poetry of the book. James wrote the book of poetry to model after Psalms. He is working as an assistant to the accounting department for the Disneyland Resort which" he calls the Happiest Place on Earth."
