Produktbeschreibung

In 1972, I felt impressed of the Lord to write a book about my life and ministry. He even gave me the title, With God As My Partner. I voiced my objection in prayer by "reminding" Him that I had only been preaching for three years and pastoring for one. I had no experience in writing, but all I heard in return was, "Not now." I went through life with many "experiences" (both good and bad) piling up through the years. About four years ago, my wife said, "Ron, why don't you write a book about your life and ministry?" I didn't have any good answer for her; and since she is my best friend, my closest confidant, and my dearest prayer partner, I gave it some serious thought. In the following year, I came in contact with three or four others who asked me the same thing. In view of this, I went to the Lord in sincere prayer, and He said, "Now is the time." The book is not really in any chronological order but goes back and forth at times as I remember things. Again, the only way I could remember times, people, and names is With God As My Partner. I was not striving to produce any item of "literary art," but something that could be shared with others what God has shared with me through the years. It has been an interesting journey, and I look forward to continuing it. When I gave the book its title, it was with a sense of humility, and not arrogance. I am well aware of the fact that the only way I (or anyone else) can "partner" with God is by His grace, realizing that it is all for His glory.

Autorenporträt

Pastor Ron Palmer was born on September 27, 1942, in Valentine, Nebraska. He grew up living what some would call a "poor, difficult life," but what he just considered was life. In 1962 at age 19 he was saved at the Baptist Church in Kilgore, Nebraska. He served the Lord there, with his Pastor mentoring him for a year. He then moved to Montana where he got out of Church and was backslidden for six years.During this time, he joined the Navy in January of 1964 and after getting out of Navy bootcamp he married Arlee Chamberlin on June 20th of 1964. He was a hospital corpsman, surgical technician from 1964 to 1967. He spent a year in Vietnam from October 1966 to October 1967 during which he helped establish the first Surgical Team in military history. It was like the Mash units only smaller and stationed on a helicopter carrier instead of inland. Upon getting out of the Navy 1967, they moved to Baldwin Park, California in January of 1968 where they started going to the Baldwin Park Free Will Baptist Church. In June of 1968 Ron rededicated his life to Christ during the same service Arlee was saved in. In 1969 he started preaching, and in 1971 God called him to Pastor. He pastored the Downey Avenue Free Will Baptist Church in Bellflower, California, for fifteen years, after which they moved to Billings, Montana. There they started the Cross Roads Free Will Baptist Church, in January 1986, where they have been pastoring since then.Pastor Ron has written two other books prior to this one. His first was "With God As My Partner," which is an autobiography, and his second was, "Don't Stay At Calvary," which is a book on the importance of consistent Christian service, and why the Church is so different now than during the first century.His ministry has been a journey of faith and miracles, and by sharing what he has been through in his ministry in small churches, he hopes to be able to encourage those who are in similar ministries by showing how God can effectively use them.
