Gregory ColesGregory Coles is an author, playwright, and songwriter. He spent fifteen years growing up in the Muslim neighborhoods of Bandung, Indonesia, in the shadow of a golden-domed mosque marked by a spire with a silver crescent moon. The son of two cmmitted Christian teachers, Coles learned from a young age to look for God in the world around him. He learned to speak several languages and published his first short story while still in high school. At age eighteen, Coles returned to the United States to pursue his education, earning a bachelor's degree in communication with emphasis in English literature-and graduating at the top of his class. Today he is a doctoral student and part-time English instructor at Penn State University. Read More Read Less
