Mike Owens is a carpenter by trade, and his company has been building patio covers and decks in the Dallas area since Nixon was in office. He met his wife Susan three years before they were married at the end of their senior year at Memorial High in Joplin, TX, after which they attended the Dallas Bible College. They have five children and four grandchildren. His hobbies have been fishing, boating, flying and building seaplanes – but mostly writing articles, books and websites.

After 50 years in Baptist and Bible churches, the Lord showed him that He is sovereign in all things (as in everything!). Upon seeing this profound truth God showed him I Timothy 4:10, which enabled him to see that Romans 5:18 is also true – just as it reads.

Mike now finds fellowship among those who have also seen God’s relentless love and unconditional mercy, primarily with those who ascribe to the truths promoted by StudyShelf and Bible Students Notebook.
