Living Beyond the Danger Zone: A Diary of Angelic Interventions

Forside
TEACH Services, Inc., 2004 - 226 sider
Meet Ron Rogers, adventurer, naturalist and extraordinaire. His guardian angel and conversations with God have accompanied him as he found continual excitement, whether deliberately pursued in foreign lands or encountered in his own backyard.
Come along on remarkable escapades as Ron houses and handles venomous snakes, fights off lurking sea creatures intent on taking his life, deals with bandits and bands of machete-wielding natives. Follow him as he recounts astonishing and often harrowing incidents as he flirts with death in abyssal mine shafts, defies glaciers, experiences starvation, and flees from the jaws and claws of Komodo Dragons in Indonesia, and finds himself crying out to God in desperation and in gratitude.
Ron's many photos further document the selected miraculous episodes described within this volume. If you weren't a believer before reading this book, reliving the life-threatening and life-changing incidents with Ron surely will compel you to ponder the occurrence of miracles in your own life, and thereby ultimately inspire you to seriously consider God's existence.
The author's undying thirst for adventure is so much a part of Ronald D. Rogers that he cannot imagine leading the mundane life that most people do. At the same time, spiritual enlightment, development and appreciation for the power of God through intervention, has guided his journey for life.
Now in his mid-sixties, though still plagued with health problems, Ron teaches young people how to appreciate God's creations in the natural world that he so enjoys. He now searches to perpetuate his stead upon his retirement from earthly existence.
Presently, Ron and his wife reside in the mountains of northern California glorifying God with his personal natural history museum.
