| About The Author: Glenn B. Shoop | ||||||||||||
| I grew up in Canton, Ohio, preparing for a professional football or baseball career, but a severe college football injury changed my plans. My best friend and future wife helped me to overcome this life-changing disappointment as I utilized the discipline learned as an athlete in earning a degree in chemistry. After a few years working as an industrial and then as a basic research chemist, another unexpected event occured when I began a 29 year position as a literature chemist in Columbus, Ohio, which entailed, among many educational duties, abstracting and editing scientific research papers and patents after a difficult and demanding training period. God blessed me with a truly wonderful wife, two sons, and five grandchildren, and shortly after a forced early retirement because of an illness diagnosed as chronic fatigue, I responded to God's nudging and began summarizing every Book of the Bible using the skills I had as a literature chemist. This task, which took 10 years to complete and all of the energy and words that God provided, would never have been finished without the help of my word-processing and praying wife, encouragement from family, editorial and Biblical accuracy advice, and computer instructions. |
