Professor Carsten Johnsen’s Resources — Visionary writing on Christian philosophy
My life intersected with Dr. Johnsen’s from 1977-1987, when I came to appreciate his deep and valuable insights, which he credited to the Spirit of Prophecy. Can you recognize the inroads of pagan philosophy in your own thinking, in the church, and in society? You will find here Dr. Johnsen’s material in e-Books, biography, bibliography, etc. I launched this website in 2012 and have been the webmaster. These resources are now a service of Health Ministry Foundation.

Pastor J. W. “Bill” Lehman’s Resources — Heart-warming material on righteousness by faith
My pastor in Loma Linda 1976-1977. I recommend learning about Pastor Lehman’s personal testimony entitled, “From Legalism to Grace.” On his web site you will find his audio, and PDFs of his material. These resources are now a service of Health Ministry Foundation.
