Welcome
Welcome to my blog and thanks for taking the time to learn about my story. I thought long and hard about creating this blog and sharing my adventure. I've been thinkin a lot lately about the quote from Mark Twain. Twain said, "The two most important days in your life...
1996
As 1996 came to an end in 1997 I would meet “The One.”
1994
I volunteered for this auction. You know…an auction where YOU get auctioned off for charity. It was kinda cool. We had to wear tuxedos and it was at a pretty cool place in Atlanta.
1993
However, little did I know that in 10 years everything would change as God showed up in my life in a huge way.
Welcome To the 1990’s
Then…Bam@! I got demoted. It caught me by surprise and I was crushed. In my opinion, getting demoted is one step ahead of getting fired, but to me, they might as well have fired me.
1987
It’s amazing how fast things can change in one’s life. I went from living in an old, broken-down home in Flint with no real job, making next to nothing, to living in a new apartment with a new job and making more money in a few months than I made the entire year previously.
South Florida Here I Come
The older guy says to me, “Do you know who that is” pointing to his partner. I looked at him for a couple of seconds. “No idea.” The older guy showed me one of his golf balls.

The Early 80’s
I ended up getting in a scuffle at a bar one night in April of 1980. I was squaring off with this dude in the parking lot. As we were flogging each other aimlessly, one of his buddies grabbed me from behind and pulled me off of him. I somehow got my legs twisted up as I fell backward. I felt something in my left knee pop as I fell backward and hit the pavement.
Miracles Behind The Wheel III
No sooner than I had my eyes back on the road I heard a very faint but succinct voice that said, “Move back into the right lane, NOW!” I didn’t question it. I didn’t ignore it. I didn’t rebel, I switched lanes that second.
my jewish lineage
my genesis I was born in 1958 in what we called “the armpit of America,” Flint Michigan. I was born into a loving Jewish family and I was the third and last boy in the family. rumor had that my mom was pregnant with what she thought was a baby girl after I was born,...
My First Religious Memory
We were what I would call a tight-knit family when I was growing up. Unlike today where there are myriad mixed marriages which in my opinion can leave children confused from a religious perspective, there was no confusion from a religious standpoint in my home. As I...
