Ted's Most Recent Books

I grew up on Bainbridge Island, Washington, in a house overflowing with six siblings, two fearless parents, and enough noise to scare off the local wildlife. Over the years, I’ve dabbled in just about everything—Police Officer, High School Teacher, Juvenile Detention Officer, Commercial Diver, Youth Pastor, Construction Worker. I even roasted coffee professionally for a while—mostly to stay caffeinated enough to keep up.

At 15, I spotted a 13-year-old girl standing at the top of a hill and told my brother, “I’m going to marry that girl.” Turns out, I was right. We eventually ran a small fishing lodge in Pelican, Alaska, where the fish were plentiful, the sleep was not, and “vacation” usually meant hauling lumber uphill in the rain to fix something broken. Somewhere between busted engines, burnt coffee beans, and halibut the size of smart cars, God kept nudging me: “Write it down.”

So I did.

This book is the product of a life patched together with grace, grit, and a good dose of glorious chaos. I have a deep heart for young adults—and an even deeper belief that God (whom I affectionately call “Codger”) hasn’t given up on them. My writing is for the misfits, the wanderers, and anyone who’s ever felt like a half-finished prayer in muddy boots.

Enjoy the journey—and may God bless you with His chuckles and delights.

—The Old Geezer (a.k.a. me)

Several young individuals are on the deck of a large, weathered wooden ship, with two of them captured mid-air as they jump off the side. The sky is partly cloudy, and urban buildings can be seen in the background, giving a sense of adventure and heedless joy.

A stack of three books is placed on a wooden surface. The top book is titled 'HOLY BIBLE' with a dark cover. The middle book appears old and worn, with noticeable damage and frayed edges. The bottom book has a clean beige cover and is titled 'THE KINGDOM'S JOURNEY'.

An incredible blend of faith and adventure that kept me turning pages. Loved it!

An open Bible lies on a surface, with the pages in focus. Resting on top is a bright green book titled 'DELIGHT!' in bold pink letters. The book cover includes cursive white text that reads 'Discipleship as a Way of Loving and...' The composition highlights religious and inspirational themes.
