Arthur's Story
Since I couldn't even blow my nose without help until I was 25 years old, it took me awhile to find my place in God's grand scheme of things.
After graduating High School in 1974¿it should have been 1973¿I didn't get straight about studying until the end of my junior year, I wasn't sure of anything.
I was a loner throughout high school, because I didn't know how to relate with others very well. I was raised in an abusive household and didn't know how to react ro respond to love until I met Jesus Christ when I was a junior. It took me a long time to figure out what I was going to be when I grew up.
God uses my past to help others like me to find a bright and hopeful future by helping them to find peace and life through following Him. I still haven't grown up, and my wife loves me despite my Star Wars and Superhero toys (she especially puts up ...Expand for more
with being chased around the house with my Hulk Hands and my Star Wars Light Sabre), so you can say she married her kid as well as her husband.
I went to New Tribes Bible Institute from 1976-1978 and floundered around until I went to North Central University in 1980 and graduated in 1984 with a Bachelor of Science in Pastoral Theology with a minor in Christian Education. I got credentialled for ministry in 1986 and served the Assemblies of God until family issues got in the way.
After an extended separation and subsiquent divorce, I eventually found my place and started over. I am now Ordained with the World Bible Way Fellowship and pastoring a small church plant in Somerset, WI with my beautiful wife Julie at my side. We have been married almost 5 years. She's the best wife any man could ever hope for.
Bedeep, bedeep, bedeep, that's all for now.
