2MISTER GOOD FELLOW MEETS THE PRINCE is a fictional story about a young man who cannot figure out why he is experiencing difficult things, after all he is a good fellow. He figures he deserves only good experiences, especially from the Prince of Peace. The second portion of the book (REASONS TO BELIEVE) is a rational examination of facts that can lead a person to believe in God (THE PRINCE OF PEACE). It begins with reasons to believe in creation and concludes with our final destination, heaven or hell. I grew up in a family of five. This included three sisters Charlene, Denise, and Glenna. I experienced a relatively happy childhood with parents who were Christians. As I entered adolescence I began to question the reasons for belief in the Bible and the gospel message. I realized that faith needed to become personal, and I could not just rely upon the faith of my parents.This journey of faith produced some very difficult times of crisis, and times of the joy of discovery that strengthened my faith. In hope of helping others who are facing similar questions and difficulties in their faith journey, is part of the reason I wrote this book. It also helped to clarify and solidify my own faith. My beautiful and loving wife Julie has been a wonderful and encouraging part of this journey for 39 years.
