Author David Vernon invites readers to explore what Samson's last words could mean for them in Lord Remember Me -- A Fresh Look At The Life Of Samson ($13.49, paperback, 9798868518201; $5.99, e-book, 9798868518218).
Samson's hair and his strength are legendary and the most memorable parts of his life, and his death is often seen as the pitiful end to a tragic character. However, Vernon marvels at Samson's willingness to ask for the impossible -- and God's willingness to answer! If believers were willing to do the same today, what might happen?
"In order to understand Samson's prayer, it is necessary to study his life. The prayer of Samson is the culmination of his life and the more his life is studied, the more relevant Samson becomes to us in every aspect of our lives today,” said Vernon.
David Vernon grew up as a preacher's kid and was frequently asked if he was going to be a preacher like his father. His response was always a quick no. Then following his freshman year in college, Vernon surrendered to the gospel ministry. Vernon received a BA in Religion from Baylor University, a MDIV from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary and is an Honorary Alumnus from Truett Seminary. He was in the pastorate for 25 years in southwest Texas. He is married to Susanna and they have two grown children and one grandchild. He enjoys trying to sing with the Singing Men of South Texas and has been working at a gun store since 2010.
