Our family did not go to church, nor did I know anything about Christianity while growing up in San Diego, California. I became active in a variety of sports such as basketball, surfing, bowling, billiards, ping pong and Tiddlywinks.

I worked a variety of jobs while attending San Diego State University. I graduated in 1976 and also acquired a teaching credential. In the midst of all this Jesus Christ entered the drama of my life. It wasn’t long before the drama became a rescue story. Jesus saved me from myself. I was my own worst enemy and didn’t even know it. Thank you, Jesus.

The last place I thought I would ever step foot in was a church. However, now that Jesus was guiding my steps, his church was where I had to be. I got involved teaching Sunday school with the sixth graders and I also helped with the church’s youth group.

The Lord straightened out my life, put me on his blessed path and led me to the love of my life. Her name is Brenda. She became my wife that same year. An amazing thing happened: the church asked me to be their youth pastor. Those years of leading young people in the Lord was a blessing. The blessing kept growing leading us to plant a church where we still are today. We raised two children in that setting who are now adults living blessed lives in the Lord. I was then blessed to earn a Masters of Divinity Degree from Bethel Seminary in San Diego graduating in the year 2,000.

The Lord led me to start Christian Life Tools as a way to extend his salvation and blessing to others. May God’s salvation and blessing be on all who pick up this book.

Great for understanding scripture by yourself or with your children

This book is a practical tool for learning the basic truths of the Christian faith. I grew up in church and with that came some unbalanced teaching at times with misrepresentation of the scriptures. Pastor Reed explains sin and grace simply with God's redemptive truths. I read the book this summer as a devotional tool with my sons. In this "anything goes" culture, the scriptural truths explained in this book will help dispel the myths that cloud truth in our culture and keep people from learning the secrets to true contentment.

Growing up in a Christian household gave me a sense of "I was raised this, therefore I am this." This book showed me the light and answered many questions that I hadn't thought to answer. As the name implies, it includes the basics of Christianity, but so much more as well. I definitely recommend this to anyone who may be struggling with their faith. It was passed to me from my mother and I will be passing it on to a few friends of mine.
