My Unique Purposeful Sci-fi (time travel) novel

I am a Seminary graduate, Bible teacher, article writer, Published Christian fiction author and publisher of an inspirational success ezine.
I was born in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, on June 8, 1943 to Christian parents and accepted Jesus as my saviour at an early age, though I doubted later. (see my lense of faith).
I was an avid reader, preferring a good book to a ball game. I was especially interested in stories about other time periods and science fiction. In Jr. High school, I became interested in writing and drama. I wrote several poems, articles and a few short stories, plays and novelettes.

While attending St. Petersburg Jr. College, I won second prize in a short story contest with the Biblical short story, "Beggarman-Thief."
I graduated from Clearwater Christian College in 1970, with a B.A. degree in Bible-literature, and Biblical School of Theology (now Biblical Seminary) in Hatfield, Pennsylvania, where 1974 with a M.Div.
I was ordained in November of 1974, and has served as assistant or associate pastor or Bible teacher in several churches. I also served in a foreign student ministry, which is where he met my dear wife, Berenice from Venezeula. It was there also that I began working on the novel "Of Such Is The Kingdom," based on his short story, "Beggarman-Thief."
Following our marriage in 1984, we spent a year and a half in Venezuela, where, while teaching English, I was also able to work on this novel, "IMPOSSIBLE JOURNEY." Upon returning from Venezuela, I completed and revised my Biblical novel, "OF SUCH IS THE KINGDOM," which was published by PublishAmerica on September 7th, 2003.
Meanwhile, I also wrote, produced and co-directed a unique theatrical production entitled "BROADWAY DREAMS, A Review with a message." which was preformed in 1995 and again in 1997.
I also graduated from Conneticut school of Broadcasting in April, 2000, and worked part time for a while in several radio stations.
Now, after years of not wanting to pastor because of the responsibility, I feel I should go ahead and try with the Lord's help, so I have applied to a small churh and am awaiting their reply. If not accepted, I intend to keep applying to others.
