For five years I worked as an editor of textbooks and tradebooks for Christian schools. Currently I am Director of Church Planting Ministries for Baptist International Evangelistic Ministries. In this role I have traveled over 30 times to various parts of Russia and Ukraine. But I still enjoy freelance writing, primarily for Christian publications, and this provides part of my missionary income. In 2007 JourneyForth Books released my second novel, a Christian World War II story titled Gunner's Run. I have also had published over 200 articles and short stories for a variety of publications. These include Breakaway magazine, Brio, Clubhouse, Clubhouse Jr., Horizons, In Touch, Power for Living, Writer's Journal, and others.

Hi, Rick! So happy to meet you here at Shoutlife!
I'm looking forward to getting to know you better as I learn more about you and your work.
When you get a minute, I hope you'll pop over to my Shoutlife profile and my web site to see what the good Lord has had me doing since He convinced me to trade my guitar and microphone for a computer.
I pray that He will shower you and those you love with abundant joy and amazing success!
Big warm hugs to you, my new Shoutlife friend!
Eyes on Him,
(1 Corinthians 10:13)
Loree
