2 thoughts on “About

  1. Hello Ronnie Lee. It’s Mike Kaufman, keyboard man at First Presbyterian on E Main, Ionia. I was searching online for Jim Killion. He was great to find and give us a bunch of tambourines for our youth (mostly in Ionia’s Head Start program).
    Would you have his phone, address, email address or some way I can reach him? I seek out vocalists for our Sunday service.

    Sparta, MI (long drive each Sunday)

    1. Jim Killion 616-523-1150 is the only contact info I have for him…

      BUT… I do have something for your to look at…I spent the last 5 years writing a Christian book for grade school children…I would love to have you check it out and get some constructive criticism…go to the web page… http://www.ronnielee.rocks ….click on, “For generations to come” SNEAKY PEAKY….the password in all caps is LETMEIN…check out the table of contents…

      “For GENERATIONS to come” is a historically accurate novel based on the Knauss family tree starting in 1546 Hessen Germany spanning almost 500 years to the present day in the United States of America. This digital book is written for the grade school readers and they can view it from any cell phone as easily as a video game. True life experiences and historical facts are blended together in a new way that only can be presented in a digital book format. The reader can follow the story line as it is shaped by events that happened in history. “For generations to come” tries to encourage the young reader to learn more about their own personal history and it can be enjoyed by all ages.

      The story line is like a Tom Sawyer/Nancy Drew book. It has action and tall tales for the boys and at the same time romance and mystery for the girl readers.
      As you read the text you will see hot button hyperlinks that will connect the reader with other text that relates to the story.
      This project was written for grade school children 8 thru 12 and it is designed to be viewed from their cell phone.

      The novel is written like a Hitchcock film or an old 1930s murder mystery…you think you know who “has done it,” until the cliff hanger endings that are throughout the story line. Many pictures of the times help tell the story and they can be enlarged by clicking on them.

      There are three goals in the mission statements here:
      1. to encourage young people to seek out the Lord Jesus Christ
      2. to have a personal relationship with HIM
      3. to stimulate young people to be interested in their own history…if they are interested in their personal history, then all of history, is their history.

      May the Lord bless you for your time looking at my work and helping me reach these three goals.
