I've been a compulsive reader since I was eight years old. It's not uncommon for me to read a book or more a day. I became a fine artist during my hippie days from 1967-71. After graduation from U of Minn, I almost immediately got into publishing, first as an illustrator, then as a graphic designer, then a typographer, art director, instructor, program director, author, font designer, online teacher, self-publisher. All the while I did some art, wrote a lot, and kept myself busy.

My main blog and Website is The Skilled Workman which covers resources for publishing books and ebooks with InDesign, plus training for designing fonts.

These days it's primarily a solid food believers site.

The spiritual blog is

A life of Biblical Reality

A life of Biblical Reality should be the norm for born again believers. It’s a simple viewpoint. The scriptures were written under the anointing of the Holy Spirit and contain the written word of God. But they cannot be understood … Continue reading →

Power by Jeffrey M Jones
Rate this book
Clear rating
A typical second book, scattered and confusing

The characters are good. The action is interesting, but it’s all chaos—as is the world they are living in. America is falling into violent disruption. But Jesus is still in control—of course.

The Dragon's Prophecy by Jonathan Cahn
Rate this book
Clear rating
A clear description of the war we are in

As usual, Johnathan presents the background clarity to the conundrums we face in a world run by Satan. Victory is ours. We just trust in Yeshua Messiah. Simple, huh?

Applying prophecy to reality is good

Perry does it as well as anyone. This is largely spiritual speculations about prophecies we are given in scripture. But the closer we get to the end the more understandable things have become. When I met the Lord i

“If the Holy Spirit was withdrawn from the church today, 95 percent of what we do would go on and no one would know the difference. If the Holy Spirit had been withdrawn from the New Testament church, 95 percent of what they did would stop, and everybody would know the difference.”
A. W. Tozer

“Finer culturing was often a sign of too long of a period of peace. A period of peace no doubt brought on by a strong military, which was forgotten or even ignored in the latter days of a self absorbed nation.”

Excerpt From: Guy Stanton III. “A Warrior's Legacy.” iBooks.

Guy Stanton III

“We can’t worship in ourselves. Worship is born of the Spirit. He can worship through us. We can’t automatically worship. True worship is born of the Spirit. There is a difference between praise and worship. Praise is something we do. Worship is of the Spirit.”
John Wright Follette, John Wright Follette's Golden Grain

“Signs are for unbelievers to arouse them to a consciousness that there is something dramatic around. We, as believers, don’t need an earthquake.”
John Wright Follette, John Wright Follette's Golden Grain

“Psychiatrists can pull it all apart, but they can’t put it back together, because they have no kingpin. The Lord can put it together, because He is the greatest Psychiatrist, Psychoanalyst, and Psychologist in the universe. He can analyze us perfectly. He can take us all apart, and He can look step by step in every item in our beings. Then He says, “I can put you all together”—not around the ego, but around the Christ; not ego-centric—that would damage the whole thing—but Christ-centered. He says, “Now let Me have all your faculties, and I will even put them together in the power of the Spirit, in a new-formed personality, in its correct shape.”
John Wright Follette, John Wright Follette's Golden Grain
