God's Word: From My Heart...to Yours.

Mr. Alan Vandewater is a Lay Worship Leader for the So. Ohio Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America. He uses his experiences as a firefighter, fire investigator, EMT, councilman, husband and father to bring the gospel to life. Many of his introductions were based on real life happenings, both good and bad. This makes us realize that God is still a part of our everyday existence whether we acknowledge it or not.

"Alan has a way of taking a text and drawing out a kernel of truth you will remember for a long time. These devotion-like sermons are accessible to the uninitiated and meaty enough for the mature. I love Alan's heart." - Rev. Bruce Goettsche, Author and Pastor, La Harpe, Illinois

"Mr. Vandewater speaks to us all from the heart. He takes his life experiences and transforms them into personal situations that we can relate to as we go through our daily lives " - Steven P. Schnittke, Congregant, Attorney, Acting Judge

"In God's Word: From My Heart...to Yours, Alan Vandewater communicates the gospel of Christ in clear, practical, real-world terms. Essentially a series of sermons preached during a roughly sixteen-year period to various churches in the American Midwest, this book promises to touch the hearts of all those with 'ears to hear'..." - Don McIntosh, Author of Mission-Centered Apologetics
