The Loneliest Shepherd

First of all I am a born again christian. Called into evangelism by God. My name is Richard Foster and I am a retired businessman and evangelist. I have pastored over the course of my life and I feel that God has given me a mission. My questioning mind has inspired many original programs and teachings as well as the inspiration for this book. As a retired businessman I have had to make many decisions and choices over the years in my business. I can now look back with hindsight and ask myself all those, what ifs as they would pertain to my life today. That is really the core of our story. Its about the choices we make and how those choices affect us immediately and all along our life journey. The Loneliest Shepherd deal with choices and how making bad choices can effect just about every aspect of your life. At the birth of Jesus I wondered who it was among the shepherds that had to stay behind and watch the sheep. I wondered how that might effect that persons life, what his life might turn out to be like and where he might end up. While the story is purely fi ctional, I have taken true accounts from the Bible and created a what if story around them to help put into perspective just how criticle making the right choices really are. My prayer is that this encounter with David will cause you think more deeply about life than you ever have before.
