"We met a few years ago while you were
signing books at the Comfort Zone Coffeehouse in Plainfield,
Indiana. You may recall giving me a copy of Builder of
the Spirit with a bent cover early
in the morning. Things have changed
quite a bit with me since then. At the time I was a strict
fundamentalist. Eventually I reached the point I quit
growing and moved in a new direction. But, now I am involved
in a full-gospel Church. I have finished a semi-complete
version of a book inspired by that sudden leap of spiritual
growth. I mean to be a help and a comfort to those who wish
to grow to a larger understanding of the Lord.
Last, and most important, thank you
for following the Lord and ministering to others. It really
does make a lasting impression even in cases like mine in
which the seed takes several years to grow!
When I first read Builder of the
Spirit there was much that I was not ready to accept.
But since you chronicled the things the Lord did in your
life rather than the things you did, your book revealed the
undeniable truth that God still speaks to those who are
willing to listen. It saddens me greatly that there are
people who love the Lord but yet aren’t willing to believe
that He speaks, and therefore won’t listen - just like me
only a short time ago."

"Thank you very much for
Builder of the Spirit that you sent to me, now that most Africans are
getting blessed with that book. It's so helpful in my
family and I am sharing the ideas to my friends too.
God bless you so much and I was so challenged by the way you
listen to God and do what he tells you. I believe I
will be like that too if my fellowship gets deeper with the
Lord. Thank you very much.

"From
beginning to end it's obvious that Builder of the Spirit
is a life-message of Greg's. The work that God has done in
him and through him comes through on every page. Greg's
candidness is refreshing and fills the reader with hope.
The parallels to issues common to anyone who has owned or
cared for a house makes the book an easy read. They also give
perspective on God's long term desires for us in the midst
of the short term joys, sorrows, triumphs, and trials.
Greg's enthusiasm to see God build Christ's character in the
lives of men and their families is infectious.
I have no doubt that God will use this work in the lives of
many, many people to draw them into more intimate fellowship
with Him."

has taken a fresh and unique approach in his book,
Builder of the Spirit, by
comparing his knowledge and experience as a builder to the
work that God does in our lives. It makes for a good read!"
