The host of the “What God Says” radio program on the Coyote radio station until his health failed, he loved to teach God’s word. He taught classes at New Beginnings as well as led the Men’s Bible Study at The Rock Church. He loved to share his favorite verse from 1 Chronicles 4:10. “And Jabex called on the God of Israel saying, “Oh, that You would bless me indeed, and enlarge my territory, that Your hand would be with me, and that You would keep me from evil, that I may not cause pain!” So, God granted him what he requested.”
