Background
A Note from Michael
Since retiring, I have devoted much of my time to writing four books that I hoped would motivate people to take a closer look at themselves and, if needed, improve the way they were living their lives. My first three books are about making good choices and managing your life through the decisions you make. The fourth is about the way I believe God works in the world through love and goodness to improve the lives of others. The four books are highlighted below with additional details about each provided elsewhere on the site.
Michael's Books about Choices
Michael’s Book about Love and Goodness
Love and Goodness
God, You, and Helping Others
This is my most recent book. The premise of it is that we are given a life and put on the earth to help God improve the lives of others. Just believing in God is not enough. We must also be doing things that help others in some way.

Why I Wrote These Books
I wrote my first three books because we see so many bad choices being made these days. You only have to watch the news each day to witness firsthand bad choices being made by both young people and adults. As a result, I wanted to do some common-sense writing that not only called attention to our choice-making problems, but also provided specific suggestions to help people improve their choice-making skills.
Concerning my fourth book, I was about to write another book about choices when I felt God “tap me on my shoulder” and nudge me to write about how God can help us not only to make better choices, but also to have more effective lives. Therefore, I made the choice to devote this fourth book to explain my belief that God is with each of us and will lead us to live in better and more meaningful ways if we pay attention to the “love signals” that God provides and make the choices to follow where they are leading us to go.
