About Rev. Dr. James K. Stewart

Dr. Stewart is a retired Presbyterian Minister and aspiring screenwriter. With a Master’s Degree from the University of Toronto, a Theological Diploma from Knox College, and a Doctorate from the University of Ashland, Ohio, his passion for the people who built our faith is sure to inspire all who read his eight-novel series title, Ghosts of the Shephelah. Previous works include Biblical Themes, a Bible Study resource, co-author of Tenacity & Spirit, and the screenplay, The Death Train. Exegeting biblical passages in the original Hebrew enables him to bring life to the people and significant events of the Bible in an exciting new way. Many novels are written from a woman’s perspective, void of male bias. Much of Dr. Stewart’s early life was spent working as an Ironworker in southern Ontario. His fascination with the television series Sea Hunt inspired him to become a Master Scuba Instructor. He has also spent many years sailing the Caribbean with his brother-in-law, diving, and fishing. Married for fifty-two years, with two children and five grandchildren, his life experiences bring an in-depth understanding of present and past human nature.
