About the Book

My, how things have changed! Experience glimpses into the past from the memories of a Baptist preacher who continues his mission of joyfully serving Jesus each day. Read of life incidents he has tied with his understanding of the Scriptures that have served to guide him through everyday living for eighty-eight years.

From working in the cotton fields in northern Louisiana during the Great Depression to maneuvering through the age of computers and cell phones, experience the life lessons E.J. has learned along the way. E.J. took to heart the importance of every experience he encountered throughout his eventful life, from the value of hard work to the importance of not only making friends but being a friend as well.

Journey along with E.J. as he fulfills his lifelong passion of making sure every person he meets, from the waitress in the restaurant to the person in the airport, has a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. As you read this book, you will be encouraged to follow his example in getting up each morning and asking God to make you aware of divine appointments. You too may want to determine not to let anything or anyone rob you of your joy in the Lord!
