Opis

My Chapter of the Story author Nils Olson has a joyful energy about him that radiates clarity and a deep love for God on a personal level that is very powerful. He touches the deepest cords of spiritual connection in his book and brings living faith into every one of its stories. Nils brings his wonderful sense of humor and childlike joy into his stories and animates them with love. It was a joy to read his story. --Jen-Ann Kirchmeier, Premier Artist in the State of Alaska.

David Coughlin, Professor Emetrius, Kyushu International University; Parish Priest, Kokura Emmanuel Anglican Church, Kita Kyushu City, Japan says, "Nils is a writer who will definitely catch your fancy. I have been an Anglican priest for over twenty years, and I have yet to read a book that combines spirituality, humor and autobiography in such a lively and easy-to-read book. The book radiates the Holy Spirit, while remaining homey and accessible to readers of various ages. The book doesn't preach, it doesn't show pride, it just lives, and you will live more fully as a result of reading it."

Computer and graphic artist, James Xavier comments, "Reading My Chapter of the Story is like sitting with Nils and talking over a hot cup of coffee. It's fun, refreshing, full of laughs, and you just don't want it to end. Nils has a charismatic way about his portrayal of real life; one cannot help but be drawn into his sense of beauty in everything, and his wide and wonderful ideas on life."

Author Nils Olson and his wife, Andrea, are missionary/pastors in Japan sent out by Bethel Fellowship International in Washington state in 1978. They currently pastor the church they pioneered thirty-five years ago in Munakata City, a bed town of 95,000 located between the two major metropolises of Fukuoka and Kita Kyushu cities. Upon graduation from high school, major studies in junior college, and vocational-technical school in Tacoma, WA Nils was planning a career in radio-television news broadcasting when he experienced a series of events that caused his major to change. He enrolled in Bethel Temple Bible School in Seattle where he met his wife. They married and moved to Japan where they have been living and working ever since.
