Acknowledgments

When I began to write novels, I had no idea I’d get this far, and it wouldn’t have been possible without the help and encouragement of a lot of people along the way. At the start, two great writers and teachers, Alton Gansky and James Scott Bell, suggested I try my hand at fiction. Along the way I learned from numerous others—too many to name. Agent Rachelle Gardner saw something in my writing she liked and has helped guide my course for years. The folks at Abingdon Press, first under the direction of Barbara Scott and now Ramona Richards, have been a pleasure to work with. Cat Hoort and her team have made sure word gets out about the book. Teri Wilhelms supplied the finishing touches with her edits. My wife, Kay, in addition to being an encourager, has served as my first reader for all my novels, always pointing me in the right direction when I get off course. I appreciate every one of you. I couldn’t have done it without your help.

My retirement from medicine has not gone according to my plan, but rather that of God. But that’s okay, because His plan, as always, has turned out to be much better than mine. I can hardly wait to see what He has in mind next for me.
