━ The Books ━
Faith, Work, and the Creator Behind Both
And God Said, “It Was Good”
The biblical story of creation beyond Genesis 1, where faith, science, and Scripture meet.
Christ-Centered Leadership at Work
Called to Serve on Mondays, with Rick Sessoms. Leadership as service, integrity, and Christ’s example.
Work, Wealth, Wisdom, & Worship
Short meditations for leaders, each with Scripture, prayer, and questions for reflection.
━ The Author
An engineer who kept asking how it all fits together
A University of Michigan mechanical engineering graduate, Jim spent much of his career developing medical technology, earning about 30 U.S. patents along the way. His faith has stayed central through all of it.
Engineering, business, ministry, Scripture study, and art shape his writing on faith, creation, leadership, work, and wisdom.
The inspiration for each book varies, but my motivation for writing has been to share what the Lord has taught me through experience and study.
