One Man's Beliefs

Book excerpt: Doctor John was born in Citronelle, Alabama in 1931, during the great depression. Raised in a Methodist minister's family, his early years instilled a lifelong passion for Christian Methodism. Doctor John initially enrolled at Huntingdon College in Montgomery Alabama to become a minister himself -following in the footsteps of his father-but later changed course in education, switching to a major in Paediatrics. After retirement, Doctor John reminisced on his early years and wrote the book 'Our Proving Ground: Memories of The Good Old Days'. Shortly after, he began to meditate on God's good earth and the people who gave themselves for others, eventually penning 'Fifty Two Weeks with God, God's Creation and Men and Women Who Followed Christ'. Doctor John spent many years reading into religious scriptures and varied histories of other faiths, through which he found a balance for his latest work, 'One Man's Belief: The Theology of Doctor John'. This book explores the evolution of the author's thoughts and beliefs as he further developed his own vision of God, God's creation and the will of God for mankind.
