Dr. William Thomas brings over fifty years of education, experience, and research into his writing. His hope is that his first book will impact people’s lives. As a veteran of two wars: Korea and Vietnam, plus forty years as a pastor and army chaplain, he has lived through events that were shaped by historical decisions.

Thomas is a retired pastor who still preaches occasionally for his congregation. He holds a Ph D in the area of pastoral authority, and a California state license in marriage, family, and child counseling. Before pursuing publication, his writings included sermons, newsletters, and a doctoral thesis on pastoral authority. His poetry has been published by Mira Costa College publications in California, and in a Famous Poets Publication. He self-published a chap book of poems and essays titled, Sonnets of the Soul, in 2005. He resides with his wife, Donna and their golden lab, Sooner, in McKinney, Texas. They have seven children and seventeen grandchildren.
