Fifty-Two Weeks with God is composed of fifty-two meditations on God, God's creation, and men and women who gave their lives for others. The book begins with New Year, the time we think of what we have done before and repent and resolve to correct ourselves. We sit in awe at God's magnificent creation and what He has done for us. We meditate on the lives of others who felt the call to follow Christ and care for those in need. We meditate on the innocent children whose characters and beliefs we mold as we care for them by word and deed. We meditate on the spirit of God, the spirit of love and truth. We meditate on God's promise for us to be with him in the warmth of his love for eternity if we follow His example and teaching.

"Whatever is true, whatever is good, whatever is honorable, whatever is of good report. Whatever is lovely, whatever is pure; think on these things (Philippians 4:8)."

Seven children were born to a poor Methodist Preacher's wife. Doctor John was born in 1931, two years after the stock market crash of 1929. Some people were jumping out of windows and off bridges to end their lives because of the loss of money and sudden debt. The first preacher's kid, to be born was Mary Elsie, followed every one to three years by Bobby, the author (Johnny), Carolyn, Lex, Peggy Ann and Virginia. They had very little so the depression meant little to them. The story is based on the actual lives of these preacher's kids as they grew up in small towns in southern Alabama and northwest Florida. God's entire world, as they knew it, was their playpen and proving grounds. All the adults in the neighborhood were their guardians. They protected them the few times that they knew they needed it and scolded them when they thought they should. Never do I remember parents getting into arguments because of their children. As you read you will join the author and Bobby who were almost inseparable except when they were in the schoolroom. They didn't have Indian Joe, as Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn did, but they faced their own dangers at times. Their guardian angel must have been with them as they spent most of their growing years in the woods, on the creek bank or on the rivers. Little did they realize the dangers they faced as they camped on the creek banks, rowed boats on the rivers, explored caves, climbed trees and waded snake infested waters. They seldom went hungry or thirsty and created their own toys and good times. Those were the good old days.

The Fourth Doctor departs, the Fifth arrives and the Master returns in these three classic 1980s adventures!

Doctor John was born in Citronelle, Alabama in 1931, during the great depression. Raised in a Methodist minister's family, his early years instilled a lifelong passion for Christian Methodism. Doctor John initially enrolled at Huntingdon College in Montgomery Alabama to become a minister himself -following in the footsteps of his father-but later changed course in education, switching to a major in Paediatrics.

After retirement, Doctor John reminisced on his early years and wrote the book 'Our Proving Ground: Memories of The Good Old Days'. Shortly after, he began to meditate on God's good earth and the people who gave themselves for others, eventually penning 'Fifty Two Weeks with God, God's Creation and Men and Women Who Followed Christ'.

Doctor John spent many years reading into religious scriptures and varied histories of other faiths, through which he found a balance for his latest work, 'One Man's Belief: The Theology of Doctor John'. This book explores the evolution of the author's thoughts and beliefs as he further developed his own vision of God, God's creation and the will of God for mankind.
