Hey Brother John,
I want you to know how very much this is blessing me to read your book, God Had a Son before Mary Did. I really believe that it is going to help me be who I truly am in Christ, rather than who I once was. Thank you so much!

Amen, Billy. I know how you feel! I will pass along that thanks to Jesus. It’s all his fault! 🙂

Brother John,
Someone recently said the book, “God Had a Son”, was addictive, and I agree. I read the first two chapters straight through!
Always, when I read, I like to mark parts that really stand out. Well, you should see my pages! So much underlining, asterisks, smiley faces, wows, “love this” – are everywhere. I tried to hold back writing on it so much because Sammy will be reading it, too. No doubt he’ll know what my favorite parts are.
On page 18, where you wrote about God’s kind of life, I wrote on my page this: Preacher Clark called it “The Blessing”. And also on page 22, where you wrote, “Thanks be to God for His impressible gift!” I again wrote in: Preacher Clark “The Blessing”.
It brought back sweet memories of seeing Preacher Clark stand up in the meeting and talk about someone, “Receiving The Blessing”, but at that time I had never heard that before.
Also, in reading about some people ‘s reactions to Jesus, it is sobering to read the top of page 33 where you tell about judging too harshly those who were guilty of Jesus’ death because we are reading their story now as only God knew it then, and what would we have done or thought at that time?
All of this is such wonderful reading! Thank you for working all these years to get this out. It is really a blessing.
