Welcome to Life by the Word Ministries

We are glad you are here. Our prayer is that with the help of the content on this site, you will come to learn how much Jesus loves you, or you will grow to love Him more if you have already surrendered your life to Him, having accepted His payment for your sin, and living under His Lordship, for He is King!

Glory Stealer

Two men, both followers of Jesus Christ, met in an unlikely way in the fall of 2002. Even though their time spent together in this workplace was brief, God planted a special seed in each of their hearts. While the Lord's leading then had them almost 3,000 miles apart, they collaborated over the internet to write this book. A book that has been written on their hearts as they have lived most of their lives as glory hounds. They have decided to document many of these thoughts, hurts, and painful lessons in a book that by His grace will bring Him the glory only He deserves, and will minister to other glory stealers around the world.
