The Love Branches

I am a husband and father of 10 children, 2 biological and 8 step children. I am also the grandfather of 3 children. I am currently the resident of Raleigh, North Carolina, my hometown. I earned an associate’s degree in Biblical Studies from Andersonville Theological Seminary in 2014. “The Love Branches” is my first book written and published.


“The Love Branches” is a collection of poems written throughout my adult life. It is a book broken down into 3 categories. The faith poems are about God and His relationship with His people through faith. The love poems are about the love relationships between God and His creation and between men and women. The life poems are about the everyday life and condition of the heart. A play was included to illustrate the love we should have for our fellow man.
