A Special Thanks

"When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. For I am the Lord thy God...and I have loved thee."
(Isaiah 43:2-4)

    First of all, we want to thank our loving Father who has brought us through the waters, through the rivers and through the fire so that they didn't overflow us, and we weren't burned, just as He promised. May this book bring glory to Him.

    We would also like to thank Bill Welty for his incredible contribution to this manuscript. To Lew Phelphs, John Loeffler, Lisa Bright and Tracy MacDonald for their time and love and support. And finally, to Claudia Lovejoy for her invaluable help with the early parts of this manuscript.
