Author Biography

Hi there! My name is Art, and I'm a missionary-evangelist, which means I travel all over the world to tell people about Jesus and teach Christians how to share God's love with others. My wife Robin and I have two sons-Josiah and Jeremiah-and I wrote this book to help them (and kids like them) to experience God and become strong Christians. Before becoming a minister, I studied Early Childhood Development and Education in college and worked as a child care provider for nine years. I also served as a children's and youth pastor for about five years. Even though I mostly talk to grown-ups now, I still believe God loves to minister through kids. Jesus said that everyone who believes in Him would do the same miracles He did, plus greater ones (John 14:12), but He never said, "If you're old enough." If you believe in Jesus this book is for you!
