Notă biografică

Now in his mid- 80's and a widower, Bob resides in the hill country of Texas, 40 miles NW of San Antonio. He observes some major life experiences formed who he is today. In addition to loving parents, Bob was partly raised by a black live-in maid who, for some reason, thought he was the greatest kid on earth. Doubtless, it was her close relationship in his life that, later as an adult, made him concerned with the plight of the poor and needy of our society. He learned perseverance, a requirement of writers, taking piano lessons, practicing daily for many years until he now plays by ear for fun, playing spiritual songs to the Lord as a prelude before each worship service. He worked in local government in the 1960's in a position requiring his helping governments to plan and coordinate together, learning the tremendous value of the unity of separate entities. While working on "War on Poverty" programs, he also learned of the limitations of government in solving social issues, and recognized the church, when involved in social problems, was better suited for such transformation efforts. Fully saved at age 41 in 1973, Bob was drawn to Christ for the Nations Bible Institute; then graduated with a Bachelor of Theology degree from Fountain Gate Bible College. Fountain Gate taught him about figurative language in scripture, embracing the principle taught by St. Augustine, perhaps the most influential theologian of the early church. St. Augustine wrote the New Testament lies hidden in the Old, and the Old Testament is enlightened through the New. Augustine's teaching prepared Bob to respond as a scripture researcher to the statement of Jesus to His disciples in John 16:25, "These things I have spoken to you in figurative language." His research led to the writing of his book, The Extraordinary Gospel of John, now being published, in which he interprets some of the allegorical figurative language in the first 11 chapters of John, concluding that John wrote two gospels in one. Soon after he was saved, the Holy Spirit led Bob into many tests and trials, giving him several early lessons in humiliation. Many of these painful humbling and character building experiences, Bob describes in this book, The World that Hates Us: Our Promised inheritance, The Extraordinary Gospel of John, and The Spiritual Language of Creation and More, soon to be published all under the mark: Beyond the Biblical Letter. If it is God's plan to leave me on earth beyond that, I will tackle The Book of Revelation. Bob also has a B.B.A. degree (finance major) from Southern Methodist Univ., worked in the credit union industry for 15 years, and an M.A. degree (city managing major) from the University of Texas and worked in local government for 13 years. He is a retired Captain in the Naval Reserve. He currently writes weekly newspaper articles about the work of Helping Hand Crisis Intervention Center for both Bandera newspapers. Earlier, Bob volunteered for 5 ¿ years for Helping Hand, helping to coordinate churches assisting families and individuals in crisis with hope and resources to get back on their feet. He also served as Treasurer for Helping Hand and wrote a financial feasibility study that led to the construction of the Arthur Nagel Community Clinic which provides health services for the uninsured low income families residing in his county.
