1974 – State wins ACC and NCAA Championships (Odd I would begin with God working on my behalf in order that State would become champions, but God loves me best : He also loves you best.)

1978 – Met my wife at a stoplight in West Palm Beach Florida

1997 – “God loves Eddie so much he created the Internet so Eddie could have a job.” – Dale Dexter. With my job at Dillard Paper in jeopardy, out of the blue a headhunter calls to ask if I want to work for IBM building web pages.

2009 – God asks (through the voice of Ann Tatlock), “So, when are you going to quit your job and do this full time?” (Meaning work for Christian Devotions Ministries and write for a living.)

2012 – Jeff and Rebecca fly us out to Washington State for a week-long vacation over the Forth of July. On the last day before we are to fly out, my business partner at cruisersnet.net emails to say he is buying me out. We have provision for another year.

2019 – Iron Stream Media buys LPC

Prayer proceeded all these God moments. What is your God moment?

"The Caribbean Chronicles" is a humorous time-travel pirate fantasy adventure series. The third book, "The End of Calico Jack," won first place in the Selah awards for Young Adult literature. Book four, "No Good Stede Goes Unpunished" is a finalist for the Selah awards for Young Adult literature.

The Caden Chronicles middle grade series is wholesome, humorous reading with a flair for unexpected adventure. The series has a spooky but spiritual message based on real "monsters" (sort of) found in Scripture. Hints at werewolves, ghosts, mediums, vampires, walking dead, mummies, demons, witches, and phantoms are all mentioned in the Bible. But are they real? Nick Caden doesn't think so. In each episode he sets out to prove who the real killer is.

All of Eddie's YA and Middle Grade books are available as audiobooks. Eddie calls his novels, "fun, fast reads for boys who don't like to read."
Awards for Middle Grade and YA novels * Winner of the Selah award for tween / teen mysteries * INSPY Award * Moonbeam Children's Book Award
