his book is the life journey of a seventy-nine-year-old
man who was asked by his grandchildren, What did
you do before you met Grandma?
He pondered the thought, intrigued by the
question, and answered that he had done a thing or
two they might be interested in: produced television
programs, helped produce The Joy of Painting
programs with Bob Ross, worked for President Nixon
on a special project and with the woman who edited
the original Jaws movie.
When they sat there, eating dessert after
Thanksgiving that day in 2017, their eyes rapt with
attention, he fleshed out the stories a bit to see if they
really were interested. They seemed to be, so he
asked them, If I wrote it down, would you read it?
Oh yes, Grandpa, they urged him. Would you
do that for us?
And that became the odyssey that is now this
book. Grandpa Jim has been on television most of his
life, tested his parents' limits as a small child, fought with a skunk and lost,
nearly lost his life several times by refusing to be an obedient child and
driving too long multiple times when he was tired and going off the road.
And as a nine-year-old, Jim and a friend dug a cave in a clay and sand
field beside the Chicago and Eastern Illinois Railroad, switching yard near
Chicago, where one day, the cave collapsed.
Now, every time he sees his grandchildren, their plaintive cry is, Are
you finished with the book yet, Grandpa?
Fortunately, he lived to tell the cave-in story. But his misbehavior
isn't the focus. His off-again, on-again journey with God is the story, with
many adventures and misadventures along the way. As an adult who has
recommitted his life to Christ, Jim has been a Young Life Leader, an Adult
Sunday School teacher, a Mission Committee Chair, Mission Team Leader,
television producer, talk-show host, mentor, and Teacher of the Year for
the TCOMnow MEDIA Department at a Major University. Most of all,
for over forty-seven years, he has been learning to see God's fingerprints
wherever he goes, and you will too. It is an adventure worth joining and
one you will never, ever forget.
