Join Dr. Angela as she speaks with author Richard J Raven about his book "I Was There." When asked, why the title? Richard's answer: Reading through the Gospels in my Bible, I could see the events unfolding before my mind's eye. It was as if I was there. With this in mind, I decided to put down on paper just what I had experienced. The result is this small book detailing Jesus' birth, life, miracles, death and resurrection from factual recordings written soon after his death and resurrection.A compelling story.

“One of the King's Men” is the completely factual account of the remarkable life of my son Cameron, whose short Earthly journey demonstrated his unique connection with the miraculous, heavenly realm in which he could function with complete ease and gladness.Cameron was a tall, blond athlete; a kind, loving, and helpful boy; obedient and well-mannered always; a consistent trier; neat and tidy; and a joy to his whole family. Right from his babyhood, he began to demonstrate his exceptional capacity for the supernatural realm of the Spirit and his unquenchable desire to connect with heaven and with God.Cameron was, in many ways, a typical, laid-back Aussie kid growing up in the 1980s and into the 1990s. He loved and enjoyed very much the company of his sister and brother, and his life included many of the usual adventures and misadventures common to typical young Aussie boys.His story is told with authenticity, comical whimsy, enthusiasm, gladness, and a sense of pride in his achievements, evenly mixed with trepidation, horror, and life-changing sorrow, followed by generous helpings of amazement, shock and awe, and finally, real, genuine thankfulness.This is Cameron's story and welcome to it.One of the King's Men by Estelle Everingham (Author) is available on Amazon.
