Background
Ben grew up on a small family farm in western Pennsylvania where he was active in 4-H. He later went on to Penn State University and obtained a degree in Agricultural Science in 1984. While at PSU, Ben focused on plant & animals sciences, was a member of the Penn State Livestock Judging team, and did a 4 month Internship at the Heifer International ranch in Arkansas. After graduation, Ben went on to work 32 years for Maryland Dept. of Agriculture as a Conservation Planner, where he retired in 2018.

He is an avid beekeeper which started back in his 4-H days. He now mentors new beekeepers and teaches courses at Allegany College of Maryland. He was awarded Maryland Freestate Beekeeper Citizenship Award in 2017 for his work on beekeeping legislation for Maryland.

Ben is a graduate of the Cornerstone Bible Institute, a 3 year Continuing Education outreach to systematically study the Old and New Testament, as well as Christian doctrine and theology.

He has been involved in short-term Christian missionary work traveling to parts of the USA and the Caribbean islands of St. Lucia and St. Kitts.

Animals can bridge social, economical, cultural and language barriers to bring people together. Using a lifetime of firsthand experience with animals and a dedication to the Christian life helped form the basis of his first book, All Nature Sings.

Guideline's devotional books are a great way to start or finish the day. The short biography of each writer allows the reader to have a connection to the stories told. The 2024 edition is ready to begin reading.

Great devotions that focus on animals and how the writers connect their experience with them to biblical lessons.
