"Writing is a discipline. That's why not many take up the pen, or today, sit for hours before a keyboard to write a story.Writing is not easy and requires reflection, honesty and truth telling. I've always enjoyed missionary stories, biographies, or memoirs. In my coming to follow God's call to missions, he used missionary stories and a biography to fan the flame of calling. Dave Johnson has produced a life memoir that illustrates God's grace and his leading. I've known Dave for over 30 years, and have appreciated his heart for evangelism, for service, and his diligence in pursuing a call that would leave a legacy. He's been intentional and looked at ministry through the lens of multiplying the Message. From evangelistic meetings, to mentoring, to pursuing advanced studies and now through a passion that Asian theologians and leaders would writeand influence their church and the next generations, Dave has passionately pursued the call. He and Debbie are pursuing a life that is invested in Kingdom purposes."--Publisher.
