Mr Robert Gray Ogden

Robert Gray Ogden was born a twin on November 9 1938 at the Virginia Baptist Hospital in Lynchburg Virginia. Being his father was employed by a utility electric company with offices across Virginia the family was moved around the state and spent much time during World War II in the Hampton Roads area. His father helped supply power to the Newport News Shipbuilding Company which built war ships. After the war the family moved to a town where his father and mother had grown up and where they had been married in 1936. Altavista Virginia is the town and the author graduated from high school there in 1955 as the valedictorian. He completed two degrees at Virginia Polytechnic Institute, one a Bachelors in Electrical Engineering and one a Masters in Business administration. He started working in accounting for the General Electric Company in Lynchburg in 1962 but received an invite to join the Governor's Office staff in 1963. The first book he authored will tell what happened after this event. He lives a quiet and peaceful life in Butler Pa. which has created an opportunity for him to write. Recently he published a book written by his paternal great grandfather, George, a minister of the Christian gospel during the 19th century. You will learn about Robert and his wife serving in various positions and in various Christian ministries over time after receiving Christ in the early 1970's. Since publishing these first two books Bob has co-authored two books with his father Samuel Darwin Ogden. Samuel Ogden was already deceased so Bob published his Dad's writing 14 years after his passing. Bob's brother, Bill published the other two books of their Dad's writing about the same time in unison. Then in 2019 Bob decided to author and publish commentaries on parts of the Old Testament. Thus you can find 3 books on the earliest chapters of the book of Genesis and three books commenting on all the chapters of the book of Daniel. He recently publish his commentary on the book of Isaiah and chapters 5 through 7 of Matthew. Bob was inspired by the teachings he received while a student of the Bible in the early 1980's. He is a believer in Jesus and believes that God created the universe approximately 6000 years ago. He also believes we are living in a time when Christians are waiting for the return of Christ. He tackles the commentaries of these 8 books with a studied and in depth approach. Hopefully you will learn and enjoy the insight he provides on the subjects of these books.
