Mile High and ClimbingThis is a book about journeys, but is not a travelogue. It is not a guide to point the reader to journeys they might take, even though they are free to do so. Rev. Biggers uses journeys he has taken to point to a spiritual truth in each journey. The book is written in an entertaining style in short chapters. The spiritual truths are very practical focusing on a spiritual insight. Rev. Biggers has written an inspirational book to entertain the reader while at the same time to encourage the reader in their daily journey with Jesus. Rev. Biggers, a native of Meridian, Mississippi, served as a pastor in The Mississippi Conference of the United Methodist Church for over 35 years. He is now retired. Roy and his wife of 42 years, Emily Jane Worthen of Meridian, live in Louin, Mississippi. They have a daughter, Melissa, who along with her husband Russell also live in Louin. They have two children, Chase 9, and Owen 5. In addition to journeys in the United States, Roy has been on mission's trips to Haiti, Honduras, and Nicaragua. He enjoys woodworking, gardening, writing, and fishing/hunting. |
