Lonnie Rex releases new book, My Amazing Adventures with God, a keepsake for sure
Many people dream of being used of God to touch people around the world. This life was not a dream for Lonnie Rex; it was reality.
He was the most connected Christian in the world in the second half of the 20th century. He connected with world leaders and the most influential religious individuals on the planet. Among the people in Lonnie's realm were Oral Roberts, T.L. Osborn, Pope John Paul II, Mother Teresa, Mikhail Gorbachev, President George H.W. Bush, President Ronald Reagan, John Osteen, President Vladimir V. Putin, and Mohammed Ali. This is only a small portion of the total list of people Lonnie has known and worked with around the world.
Lonnie was arrested in Ghana for attempting to overthrow the government when in truth he was bringing a moped to a leper colony. He played James Bond traveling up and down the Nile River and throughout Europe while bringing two C-47 planes full of food for the nation of Armenia. He traveled to North Korea at their invitation, three times! He became friends with the Cardinal of Warsaw who became Pope John Paul II while delivering milk to the children of Poland. Vladimir Putin was his personal KGB agent when he traveled to the Soviet Union at the end of the cold war. He visited refugee camps of Ethiopian Coptic Christians where babies were born too weak to cry. He promised them he would tell their story to the world. He kept his promise. He received the highest honors South Korea could bestow on a non-Korean. He was knighted by the Russian Orthodox Church.
This amazing story must be read to be believed. Lonnie L. Rex has led a life that is unbelievable until you know his stories.
"I don't ask God for money. I only ask God for ideas. But God always funds his ideas." Lonnie R. Rex

[Editor's Comment: "From Polio and Paralysis to Walking with the Pope" describes Lonnie Rex, my friend of almost 60 years. Lonnie's new book, My Amazing Adventures with God, will capture your heart, stimulate your imagination, and bolster your faith.
Lonnie Rex chose early on in life to identify with the poor by working on behalf of the weak and those who were disenfranchised. Because of the love of God he had experienced in the midst of his own personal adversity, he wanted to share that love and hope with those Jesus came to save and make whole. The story of the lad who gave his lunch of five loaves of bread and two small fish to Jesus to feed 5,000 men became his motivating theme for his mission and work in life. He demonstrated and modeled the most quoted words of our blessed Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, when He said,"It is more blessed to give than to receive" (Acts 20:35, KJV).How honored I was when Lonnie asked me to write the foreword to his book. This writing assignment was a first for me. To be named in his book with a list of well-known world leaders surpasses all expectations.
Lonnie Rex is the product of a boy growing up in the home of a Pentecostal Holiness pastor and executive church leader who has made a difference in our world that is unparalleled in modern church history.
I want to encourage you to purchase a copy of Lonnie Rex's book,My Amazing Adventures with God. After reading it, you may want to consider purchasing more copies for your family and friends. It will be a centerpiece in your home, and one you will proudly display on your coffee table or prominent piece of furniture.]
