Who am I? Born in 1934, the son of a Methodist-raised mother and a Quaker background dad, we lived in Eastern Washington State. At a Sunnyside, Washington protestant church, I accepted Jesus Christ as “my personal savior” and have not departed from that very heart-felt position, as per my up-bringing in a faithful Christian home.
Upon asking Dorothy Harris what made her different than other good Christian girls I had become acquainted with, she replied, “Oh, I might get it wrong. You better just read the Book of Mormon.” That reading gave me so much better understanding of Bible teachings that I marveled and sought to know more!
Since then, I have served as a Latter-day Saint Missionary to the Native Americans in Saskatchewan, Blacks in Southern Africa, and Polynesians in Samoa. My wife Ulene and I are the parents of eleven successful Christ-involved children.
My career has been instructing public school, religious education, the “Science of Personal Achievement” by Napoleon Hill, the “Choice” seminar of the Arbinger Institute, and speaking at a wide variety of conferences, a variety of church groups, and community associations.
My formal education includes Bachelors, Masters, and then a Doctorate degree in Family Relationships – with schooling at Washington State University, Brigham Young University, and George Wythe College.
