Ed is originally from Connecticut. He trusted in Christ after having been introduced to Him by some believers where he attended college at Southern Connecticut State University. These young believers introduced him to a small local church in New Haven called Westville Bible Chapel. Ed was impressed with their simplicity of faith, knowledge of the Bible, and their love for one another. Little did he realize the magnitude of the change his life would undertake. Through the ministry of this small work, by the Spirit, Ed increased in knowledge and wisdom and spent the next 24 years as a deacon, treasurer, financial counselor, and elder. He also became intimately acquainted with the Word and as a result regularly ministered as a Bible teacher among local Connecticut churches. In 2002 the Lord provided an opportunity for Ed to teach at a Christian college in Nashville to free up time for the weekend ministry and writing. The Lord continued to bless the ministry of the Word in Tennessee and beyond as he now spoken at many churches around North America. The Lord has touched many by his speaking and writing ministry. Several churches have joined together to commend our brother to the work of the Lord as an itinerant Bible teacher to minister through messages, conferences, camps, and writing as the Lord leads.
